Plan costs and location together
A tuition figure does not include the full cost of living in San Diego. Verify your student category and academic year, then add housing, meals, insurance, travel and other expenses using your own current estimates. The listed out-of-state prices do not establish international-student charges.
Check which campus actually teaches your intended course. An institution’s reporting city alone does not confirm the teaching site, accommodation or commuting arrangements.
