Financial Aid Tuition

Cost of Attendance Chart

After the U.S. Department of Education processes your FAFSA, they send the information to Potomac College with your Estimated Family Contribution (EFC) which is used to determine eligibility for aid. When combined with other aid and resources, a student’s financial aid package may not exceed his/her Cost of Attendance.

Your Cost of Attendance includes both your tuition, fees, and books (direct expenses for your education) and estimates of living expenses (indirect expenses). Your indirect expenses are estimated by Potomac College following federal guidelines.
