Advice for arriving in the country and traveling around the country: when checking with your traveling agent asks for lower rates for early ticket purchase and youth fares. Also apply for a frequent flyer card; usually the application is free and all the miles you fly accommodate to benefit from free tickets. Once in the country, get a student travel card that will reduce your in-country traveling cost up to 50%. The fee for obtaining these cards varies, but usually does not exceed $20. Traveling from Port of Entry to your Campus may cost up to $1,300 round trip.
All depends on the proximity of the campus, but you should definitely count that in your traveling budget.
