Cost of Attendance Adjustment Request (COAAR) Workshop

On September 26, 2023, USP collaborated with our Financial Aid Counselor partner, Catherine Custodio, hosted a Cost of Attendance Adjustment Request (COAAR) Workshop for students. If you are interested or need to adjust your Cost of Attendance for any reason(s) such as:

  • Your rent and utilities or the cost of your university residence hall
  • Purchasing a computer; you can only request this once every three years
  • Uninsured medical, dental, or optical expenses
  • Transportation
  • Childcare expenses
  • Special books and supplies
  • Relocating expenses (entering student living off-campus only)

Catherine has prepared a resource for you to utilize! See below the slides and recording from the COAAR Workshop:
