It depends very heavily on your area, especially the rent.

Where I'm at:
Gas: $30
Electricity: $30ish, it varies around there.
Water: it is paid for by the apartment in my case. Check your contract.
Internet: is also paid for by the apartment here. Other local places its $30.
Rent: My share is $225. Total for the whole apartment: $675 Other local apartments go from 400 total to 1000 dollars and up.

Other things to consider:
Land-line phone bills, cable if you want it, any type of insurance you may want to get, transportation bills, etc.

If you're renting from a corporation, watch out for annual rent increases. Renting from a private party (aka, Joe Shmoe's basement) avoids that, but then Joe Shmoe might have kids that have to be asleep at 8:00 pm sharp, so choose your battles.

If you have any money left over after your tuition and books are paid (or if they are already paid) yes, your school will give the money to you (usually a few weeks after school has started) to do with as you wish.

Room and board is just a generic term and yes, it can be used to supplement your rent and utilities and such.

Try to ignore all the spam. Every time someone asks a question about a loan, they explode with horrible companies wanting you to borrow from them at high interest rates.

Inexpensive local rentals can often be found in either the local paper (in this case, the Milwaukee Journal-Sentinal) or Craigslist.

I did a search in the J-S for rentals under $600 per month within 10 miles of Oak Creek and got 55 possible rentals, down to $425 per month, and rooms for rent as low as $350 per month for a single room with a kitchenette.

Craigslist had apartments in Oak Creek as low as $525 per month. (I'm not sure what you consider "cheap".)

I'm going to start from your list. Rent-I live in Iowa we have studio apartments for rent that are 450 per month with all utilities included. I suggest renting something like this because it means you don't have to worry about six different bills. But if there isn't any available in your area you will have multiple bills. Rent, hopefully renters insurance (usually very very low, here it is less than 20 per month) gas 20, electric 50-75, WATER40-50, cable 30-40, internet10-50, PHONE 35-40. Food for one person should be low 200 max. Also like the other people said transportation-car, insurance, gas etc.

If you are in college you may want to reconsider. If I moved off campus I would lose some of my financial aide.

It really depends on where you live and the kind of amenities you want.

Hope this helps
