The total cost of getting around in college can really vary. Will you take a subway, car or an airplane to get to school?. Will you need to pay to park on-campus? Is the campus easy to get around on foot? Do you own a car, or will you need to use busses, subways, or other modes of transportation? All of these questions can drastically impact your estimated cost of transportation.
A school's location can also have a big effect on the amount you'll have to spend just to get around. Small, rural schools may be easier to get around, but the cost of getting to campus may be higher. On the flip side, transportation in an urban area is usually expensive, but cities may offer more trains, busses and affordable flights to actually get to school. Christian Life Collegeis in a in .

Subsidized loans do not accrue interest during school, while unsubsidized loans begin accruing interest at the time the loan is issued.
