The cost of attendance is an estimate of the costs of being enrolled for the Fall and Spring semester at Iowa State University and is the total amount of financial aid you can receive. Your cost of attendance is not your University Bill.
The required Summer semester for VM4 students has a separate cost of attendance and University Bill. Financial aid is available during the required Summer semester for VM4 students.
VM4 who attempt a preceptorship away from ISU may submit a preceptorship form and receipts for reimbursement of expenses paid after academic credit is earned for the preceptorship.
