							                               Education by the Hour


Purpose:     To determine exactly what it costs to go to school.

Procedure:   Fill in the blanks. Use totals for the semester.


      Tuition                  $
      Books                    $
      Fees                     $
      Transportation           $
      Clothing                 $
      Food                     $
      Housing                  $
      Entertainment            $
      Other (i.e. insurance,
      medical, child care)     $

             Subtotal:         $

      Salary you could earn
      per term if you weren’t
      in school
                            $

             Total (A):        $

              Figure out how many classes you attend in one term.
      This is the number of your scheduled class periods per week
      multiplied by the number of weeks in your school term.
      Put that figure here:

             Total (B):        $

      Divide the Total (B) into the Total (A) and put that amount here:

                               $

      This is what it costs you to go to one class one time.
