The total cost of attending a state university is $20,700 for the first year.

A student's grandparents will pay half of this cost.
An athletic scholarship will pay another $5,000.
Which amount is closest to the minimum that the student will need to save every month in order to pay off the remaining cost at the end of 12 months?
