Mizzou Student Financial Aid is here to help students and their families navigate the process of funding a college education. Our office can help you estimate your costs, whether you’re an undergraduate or graduate student, and connect you with resources to help you plan ahead. You can also use our Net Price Calculator to estimate the financial aid you may qualify for and the estimated average cost to attend the university for one year.
The cost of attendance may vary for each student depending on factors such as degree program, housing choices, and individual needs. Mizzou Student Financial Aid uses estimated student budgets to determine financial aid eligibility. These budgets include:
Direct University Charges
- Tuition
- Nonresident tuition
- On-campus housing and food
Estimates of Indirect Expenses
- Books and supplies
- Off-campus housing and food
- Miscellaneous/personal expenses
Mizzou uses average estimated budgets when initially determining financial need. Because these figures are based on averages, the amounts used by Student Financial Aid may vary slightly from other published costs.
The University of Missouri is committed to using the Principles & Standards of the College Cost Transparency Initiative in its student financial aid offer.
