Direct Cost Worksheet
For a fast and simple way to calculate your student's cost of attendance, the Financial Aid Office offers an interactive Direct Cost Worksheet that will automatically calculate your student's costs depending on fees and aid received. (Please note that you will need your student's UCMNetID and Password to access the Direct Cost Worksheet, as each worksheet is specific to each student.)
Cost of Attendance
In Sections A, B, and C of the Direct Cost Worksheet, you can change the amounts and costs of each category and the sheet will automatically update the total amounts. Section D will show you the total amount you owe or are owed. For more information on the cost of attendance at UC Merced, please refer to the Financial Aid Office's Cost of Attendance page.
