The price of living on campus is rarely the same in your senior year as it was your first. Knowing where it is headed helps you budget for the full degree, not just year one.

Carried across a typical four-year degree, room, board and other living costs add up to about $62,427 for living costs.

This is how on-campus room and board has tracked over the last few years, plus a forward projection, at Thomas University.

Year	Room & Board
Three Years Ago	$9,240
