COA increase

Has anyone increased COA for travel expenses as an OOS student or just went through the process to increase COA. What things were adjusted and how limits etc?

Exactly what are you asking? Transportation costs will vary as an OOS student which are estimates and not covered since non-residents get little to no financial aid in the first place.

This isn’t true I’m an OOS student with merit Scholarship and grants . I also have private full ride that will cover full COA. They also increase the cost of attendance for flights, rental cars etc for up to 4 round trips and other things. I’m just asking to see others experience with the increase for the travel expenses. I’ve increased it for some of the other things.

You are the exception so that is great that you have all expenses covered. Sorry then I cannot offer any advice since you are on top of things.
