I have always been a fan of using a simple or a weighted average whenever I can. I believe the Feds would prefer a weighted average. As far as your 4 residence halls I would use a weighted average unless the cost of each residence hall is the same;-)

I have always had a standard "on campus" budget. I typically used the dorm room price for the room component. We charged the same price for 3 of the 4 dorm. However, beginning next year, the dorms will all have varying prices. From my interpretation of the handbook, "An allowance for room and board. For students that aren?t

dependents living at home with their parents, this will be an allowance that you determine. For students living on campus, the allowance is the standard amount normally assessed most residents." I plan to use the average $ of the 4 different residence halls for the room component. My CFO thinks I should use the lowest cost dorm. (I do not include apartment costs in the budget calculation because more than 50% of the students live in the 4 dorms.)

Am I being too picky? How do you get your on campus room amount? I hope you don't tell me I need 10 different COA budgets because many times, we don't know where the students will live until they're moved in. [?]

Thanks in advance for your assistance.

We have two, one for the dorms and one for our apartments.  However, my understanding is you can do an average, this is something I am looking into for our 17-18 year.  

 

I am sure doing the lowest looks good on reports, but I think this create a hardship to your students in the higher price housing .

We do the same as Laura, using the dorm cost for UG and the apartment cost for GR.
