Which of these a student actually clears depends on GPA, test score, home state, and major. A free Graidy account works that out award by award, and shows what is left to pay after it.
Cost of attendance as published: tuition, fees, housing, and food for one year. It is the sticker, before any of the awards above and before need-based aid.
Eagle Scholarship Portal (AwardSpring) — university-wide application hub that also hosts most college/department-sponsored scholarships (freshman, continuing, and transfer applications all route through it); COE explicitly instructs students to search "COE" inside the portal to pull all College of Education awards
