Housing
costs can very according to where you live (on-campus or off-campus)
and if you have any roommates. While the total cost of room and
board (meals), electricity, water, trash,
etc. are included with the Residential Life Contract fees, these
expenses (and deposits) are usually not included in off-campus
rental expenses. Be careful to include all incidental costs for
the time you will be enrolled. |

Meals are
normally included in a Residential Life plan but are not typically
part of the off-campus rent payments. Meal expenses can vary
greatly (if you life off-campus) according to how often you
eat out, personal tastes, and preferences. Meals can easily
run $300 per person per month, or $2,700 for the nine-month
academic year. |

Books and Supplies
also vary according to a number of factors, including how many
classes and the type of classes you take. Generally, $410
per semester will cover most of the books and supplies.
The two bookstores that serve FHSU operate independently from
the university. |

Personal expenses
are sometimes the unforeseen costs that cause students and families
the most concern. Personal expenses will vary according to spending
habits, personal needs, and desires. Examples of personal expenses
could include laundry, snacks, medical care, entertainment,
clothing, phone service, credit card payments, and insurance.
A minimum of $1,900 per year should be included
in your budget for personal expenses. |

Transportation costs
are those associated with traveling to and from class or returning
home for holidays and breaks. Transportation costs will significantly
increase if you plan to commute from out of town or if your
home is a great distance from Hays. In addition, the type of
vehicle you drive and the associated costs (payments, insurance,
and repairs) are a major financial concern. Allow at least $1,600
for the academic year for gas and basic maintenance
costs. |

Miscellaneous
costs should include anything that you have not included elsewhere.
Once again, personal tastes, preferences, spending habits, hobbies,
etc. will determine how much you spend outside school related
activities. Determining an exact figure will take much thought.
Try to reasonably estimate how much you will need for unforeseen
expenses that are not school related. |
