Tuition, Cost & Aid

Affordability and Cost

Average Net Price Average net price for full-time, first-time degree/certificate-seeking undergraduates paying the in-state or in-district tuition rate who were awarded grant or scholarship aid from federal, state or local governments, or the institution. Other sources of grant aid are excluded. Aid awarded anytime during the full aid year is included.

Average net price is generated by subtracting the average amount of federal, state or local government, or institutional grant and scholarship aid from the total cost of attendance. Total cost of attendance is the sum of published tuition and required fees (lower of in-district or in-state), books and supplies and the weighted average room and board and other expenses.

Tuition
In-State Tuition In-state tuition is the tuition charged by institutions to those students who meet the state's or institution's residency requirements. In-district tuition is the tuition charged by the institution to those students residing in the locality in which they attend school and may be a lower rate than in-state tuition if offered by the institution.
$28,380
Out-of-State Tuition Out-of-state tuition is the tuition charged by institutions to those students who do not meet the state's or institution's residency requirements. Out-of-district tuition is the tuition charged by the institution to those students not residing in the locality in which they attend school.

Additional Costs
Room and Board The weighted average for room and board and other expenses is generated as follows:
  • (amount for on-campus room, board and other expenses * # of students living on-campus.
  • + amount for off-campus (with family) room, board and other expenses * # of students living off-campus with family
  • + amount for off-campus (not with family) room, board and other expenses * # of students living off-campus not with family)
divided by the total # of students. Students whose living arrangements are unknown are excluded from the calculation. For some institutions the # of students by living arrangement will be known, but dollar amounts will not be known. In this case the # of students with no corresponding dollar amount will be excluded from the denominator.

What Students Are Saying

They are great at finding money for people who truly want to go there.
Jillian from Peoria, IL
Bang for the Buck: The onsite campus cafeteria is yummy & excellent. They always have 2 warm meal options, including vegan options, and 4 cold meal options available for EVERY meal time. (Most students underestimate the importance of a good school cafeteria before choosing which school to attend.) You are paying for the actual professors to who -Love- to teach & never get a teaching assistant. All of my professors know me by my 1st name & notice if I attend class or not. Other students take an active interest in helping you succeed too. The campus is tree-lined & compact, so no car is needed to get between classes. I like the architecture of several of the classroom buildings. Downside: Some of the oldest buildings are not handicapped-accessible (and 1 has no running water because it was built when Abe Lincoln was alive & its now on the national register of historic buildings). The on-campus housing is hit & miss. Some dorms are amazing & others are run-down, but new ones are under construction this semester & the old ones are about to be renovated, so hopefully all housing will be good quality soon. The tuition is a little pricier than most, but you definitely get more personal attention than a state-run university which translates into more of your homework making sense to you more of the time.
Sarah Eliza from Bloomington, IL
you definitely get your money's worth with the attention you get from your professors

It is cheaper than most private colleges and they offer several scholarships that are more than $500- $1000.
