The Financial Aid Office establishes a Cost of Attendance budget each year as the basis of awarding financial aid for the academic year. These budgets reflect the “average cost” of attendance for an LSSU student.
If your actual expenses are higher, you may request a review of your budget for certain expenses.
Your LSSU Student Account charges include direct costs such as tuition, room and board and other related fees. For a complete cost list and detailed payment information, go to www.lssu.edu/costs.
Once you are an admitted student, you will be assigned an Anchor Access Account where your personal Cost of Attendance budget will be shown. You can check your status at My.LSSU.
Student fee statements are sent electronically to your My.LSSU account. If you need assistance with your account please contact the Student Service Center at 906-635-2600.
