To get an accurate estimate, you need to:
1. Check the University of Chicago's Housing website: This website will list the various residence halls, their amenities, and their associated costs. Prices change yearly, so always check the most current information.
2. Review the Dining Services website: This website details the different meal plans available, their costs, and what they include. Similar to housing, prices fluctuate annually.
Expect to pay several thousand dollars per academic year for both. The total will depend heavily on your housing preferences (single room vs. double, location, amenities) and your dining plan selection. A conservative estimate would be in the range of $15,000 to $25,000+ per year, but this is just a broad range. You must consult the official university websites for the most up-to-date and accurate figures.
