Cost of Attendance Schedule


A-B Tech Community College Current Cost of Attendance (COA)

For the 2026-2027 academic year - fall and spring semesters

Remember, the "indirect" categories such as room, food/meals, miscellaneous, and transportation will appear on your offer letter and will not be paid to A-B Tech. The totals listed for the indirect categories are estimates based on local cost-of-living data. A student's awarded aid cannot exceed their cost of attendance total. If you receive a scholarship or grant from an agency or donor, it is your responsibility to inform the Financial Aid Office.
