Estimate repayment

Estimated loan burden for MCGSD using 4 years of in-state tuition, $1,500 annual fees, $3,000 monthly living expenses, government-derived local cost-of-living adjustment, $1,000 loan fees, and an 8.5% interest assumption.

Cost of Living: Below national average cost of living

Augusta, GA is about 0.92x the national average for cost of living. In the debt estimate, the government-derived local cost adjustment lowers the living allowance from $3,000 to about $2,760 per month. Local rent and commuting choices can still move your actual budget meaningfully.
