Education guide
Build a complete education-cost estimate
A tuition number alone is not a complete budget. Identify the billing period, number of periods, mandatory fees, living costs, materials, travel and any expected changes. Keep currency and student category explicit.
Use separate lines for quoted charges and your own estimates. Do not compare a quarterly charge with an annual amount or add USD and CAD without an explicit conversion assumption. The launch calculator intentionally does not perform exchange-rate conversion or model loan interest.
Use the education-cost tool for transparent arithmetic, then confirm the inputs with the institution. A calculated total is not an official cost-of-attendance statement.
