Tuition is not the only cost of attending college; there are other costs associated with college, like room and board, facility fees, and books and supplies. Let's take a look at what impacts these costs, and what to expect at Nightingale College.
Board costs vary based on on the number of meals you intend to eat on-campus
The cost of books often surprises first-year college students. The actual cost of books and supplies depends on the courses you take and what kinds of books and materials they require. To save money, many students choose to use books from the library or buy used textbooks and materials.
Most schools also have fees to offsets cost associated with maintaining facilties, like the computer labs and libraries, athletic facilities, and more.
There may be optional fees associated with participating in certain activities, like Greek Life, or playing on an intramural sports team. Many schools have ways for students with demonstrated need to get help covering these costs.
The cost of getting around in college can really vary. Will you drive, fly, or take public transportation to school? Is on-campus parking free, or will you need to budget for parking? Is the campus small enough that you can easily walk from class-to-class?? Do you plan to bring a car or are you planning to use busses, subways, or other modes of transportation? All of these questions can make a big difference in your estimated cost of transportation.
The location of a college or university can impact the amount you'll have to spend just to get around. Small, rural schools may be easier to get around, but the cost of getting to campus may be higher. On the flip side, transportation in a city may be costly, but there may be more trains, busses and low-cost flight options to actually get to school. The Nightingale College campus is in a suburb in Utah, near Salt Lake City.
When estimating your budget for college, be sure to consider the cost of things like entertainment, clothes, furnishings and toiletries.

Subsidized loans do not accrue interest during school, while unsubsidized loans begin accruing interest at the time the loan is issued.
