Q:	What are the realistic costs to attend SU?

The only amount you actually pay to SU is tuition/fees/books and room/board (if you choose to live on campus). Don't forget to consider other costs such as: transportation communication (phone calls) clothes personal expenses (cosmetics, hair cuts, letters and postage) recreation travel taxes
