Expense Budget/Clinical Education Fees

Each year, the student expense budget is set by the Office of Financial Assistance and is approved by federal granting agencies.  The importance of this budget to the student is the student cannot receive in aid, i.e. scholarships or educational loans, more than the student budget.  The expense budget is created for a nine-month period and is based on tuition/fees and a standard personal living allowance. The 2008-2009 full time graduate student budget is:
