I'm going to pull pull a number out of thin air, but IIRC Berkeley deployed something similar and it was $7/student/month without autoscalling. With all the awesome work Yuvi and the Berkeley team did you could likely reduce the cost even more. That will depend a lot of how you set your idle time, culling and usage pattern.
