Cost of Attendance provides a total estimate of the expenses you will accrue while enrolled at King’s College. It includes direct costs like tuition, housing, and meals, and indirect items like books, transportation, and personal expenses.
While you will not be billed by King's College for indirect expenses, they are factored together with your direct costs when determining your eligibility for financial aid.
