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.

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.

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

Manchester can be expensive, but they are also good about awarding scholarships. I am an average student with a 3.45 GPA and was rewarded a scholarship that took the price of tuition down to the cost of a public school. Manchester offers a lot of different challenging classes and many opportunities to grow and have a competitive edge in today's job market. I feel that I have gotten a lot of bang for my buck.
Braden from West Lafayette, IN
I would say that this school is worth the extra expense because it provides an ideal environment for students to flourish. I know that in one year of school here I have grown tremendously, and I would not have it any other way. Not only does this campus have good professors and a dorm life, but it also offers plenty of experiences for a student to learn about material they are ill informed about or know little about.
Taylor from Auburn, IN
This School gives you The Bang For Your Buck. For $36,000 You should get everything you deserve, good food , comfy bed , clean Dorm.
Jordan from Indianapolis, IN
Yes going to a private college is expensive, but the benefits outweigh the cost. Not only do you get a quality education, but you also meet lifelong friends and further your experience in the work force. You can study abroad, and tuition, housing, and food are all paid for, You only have to pay for outside expenses, which is so nice compared to other places where you have to pay for both. They also have so many scholarships available, and there's always financial aid. You definitely get the best eduation for a reasonable price here.
