This varies so much by school. The largest portion will be rent, so in Boston rent is pretty expensive. If you go to Tuck or Cornell you will save a lot. Beyond that, travel is a few thousand a year, books less than that and food/ent is at your leisure

Yea this will mainly be your cost of living in whatever city you are considering. Obviously you can still "live like a student" and have roommates, no car, etc. to help keep costs low. Other things to think about will be books/coursepacks, recruiting trips, social trips, some nice clothes for interviews.
