Sure, I'd be happy to help you with an estimate of Spelman College's cost of attendance! For the 2024-2025 academic year, here is a breakdown of the costs:

1. Tuition: Approximately $30,800

2. Room and board: Approximately $14,500

3. Fees: Approximately $1,300

4. Books and supplies: Approximately $1,200

5. Personal expenses: Approximately $2,000

6. Transportation costs: Vary depending on your location

These figures add up to an estimated total cost of attendance of around $49,800 per year, excluding transportation costs. Keep in mind that these numbers are approximations and may change slightly from year to year.

It's also important to remember that many students receive financial aid, scholarships, and grants, which can significantly reduce the out-of-pocket expenses for attending Spelman College. To get a more accurate estimate of what you might pay, I recommend using Spelman College's Net Price Calculator, which takes into account your financial situation to provide you with a personalized cost of attendance, by factoring in any financial aid you might receive.

I also encourage you to investigate external scholarships that you may be eligible for. These options can further reduce the cost of attending Spelman for you.

Finally, on a separate note, if you end up applying to Spelman and want tips on how to maximize your chances of acceptance, I'd check out this blog post from CollegeVine, which analyzes example essays that helped a real student gain acceptance to Spelman: https://blog.collegevine.com/spelman-essay-examples/. The post explains what each essay did well, and highlights any areas for improvement, to give you a concrete sense of what Spelman admissions officers are looking for.

Good luck!
