Estimate of Student Expenses at Northeast

Although expenses vary greatly depending on the individual situation, program of study, and spending habits, the following budgets give estimated costs for two semesters (31 credit hours). These estimates are used only to award aid and include the average number of credits taken by our students in an academic year.

Budgets may be increased to due required tool costs, additional travel, child care costs, and students attending from out of state. Books, room and board, and personal expenses are estimates; actual costs vary with each individual.

Paying Your Bill

All costs are paid a semester at a time. The Business Office will mail a statement of account to each student three to four weeks prior to each term. Students may also view their information on HawkNet. Students who have been approved for financial aid will see estimatedaid on their statements. If the estimated aid equals or exceeds tuition, fees, and on-campus room and board charges, the student will not be required to make a payment at that time. If tuition, fees, room, and board charges exceed the amount of any estimated aid, the balance is due immediately and payable no later than the first day of the semester. Balances may be paid by check or credit card.

Students are liable for the full semester’s tuition and fees. If a student officially withdraws from a class or classes sometime during the first nine weeks of the semester, a percentage of the tuition paid will be refunded. Students on financial aid who withdraw or quit attending prior to completing 60% of the term will be required to return a portion of aid received to federal sources. (See “Return of Title IV Financial Aid Funds”) If leaving college, a student must officially withdraw by completing a withdrawal form provided by the Registrar’s Office.
