  • + amount for off-campus (with family) room, board and other expenses * # of students living off-campus with family
  • + amount for off-campus (not with family) room, board and other expenses * # of students living off-campus not with family)

The University of Findlay is a very good and rigorous school. Most of the professors are very easy to get along with and they are passionate about their jobs. The campus itself is very small which makes everything convenient and a little more enjoyable in the winter.
