In addition to tuition and fees, there are other costs that should be considered when planning for college. Christopher Newport has developed an estimated Cost of Attendance that factors in direct costs like tuition and fees, as well as other indirect costs that won't be paid directly to the university. For more information about the estimated direct and indirect costs, please visit the Office of Financial Aid's Cost of Attendance page.
