Comparison between tuition and costs of local and state universities
Tuition and fees are the required costs for a full-time student; other costs are approximations. For a single student without dependents, your "Miscellaneous Personal Expenses" are costs for: entertainment, cosmetics, toiletries, etc., that you would have, even if you were not in college. Certain fees are pending legislation and are subject to change. All fees are based on California in-state residency.
