Students that receive financial aid are assigned an estimated Cost of Attendance (COA) for each semester they attend. The COA is an estimate of what it might cost a typical student to attend BRCTC, full-time, for both Fall and Spring semesters. It includes estimates for tuition, housing and food, allowances for books/supplies and transportation to and from school.
The estimates within the COA do not reflect the actual amount of money students might owe the College. Each student will receive a bill accessible on their BRIDGE account that shows actual College charges.
