The estimated cost of education at Rush University is determined by the sum of the tuition charge, an allowance for books and supplies, and an allowance for living expenses. Three categories determine the living allowance. 

1. Off campus living
2. On campus living in Center Court complex.
3. Living at home with parents/other relatives.

These budgets are based on student surveys and on federal government Bureau of Living Standards figures. The living allowance shown below reflects the amount budgeted by Rush for living expenses during the award period in the aid offer. Students with dependents may be allowed additional costs that will be added to the student budget. Married students are viewed as an economic unit. If only one of the couple is a student, the other is expected to provide his/her own support and contribute toward expenses.
