Correct answer: Costs based on direct billing from the bursar’s office.

Explanation: Direct costs are charges the college bills you directly — e.g., tuition and fees, and on‑campus room & board when the school invoices them. They are different from indirect (or “estimated”) costs like books, transportation, and personal expenses, which are not billed by the school but are included in the institution’s cost‑of‑attendance estimate.
