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.
$37,720
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

To be honest, I pay less to go to Concordia than I did at a state school because of the financial support through Concordia and the LCMS as a whole. The dorm rooms here are much better than the living conditions I had before. The food is better than that of CU but it still doesn't beat home cooking. As I have already said, the classes are entirely worth it.

The Coffee house and Dog house. You can get food and drinks without leaving campus after hours and the flex dollars make it not to expensive.

You can get a good plate of fish for $5 in Bee which is just 15 minutes away!
Cynthia
Although it is somewhat expensive, Concordia Nebraska is much cheaper than the other Concordia campuses. They make up for the high cost by giving you a safe, fun environment, great teachers, and numerous activities. They also offer many different majors, especially art majors which are a huge deal at our campus.
Megan from Harlingen, TX
Concordia is the second cheapest Concordia in the system. You get the opportunities of being able to go down and eat as much food as you want when ever the caffertia is open. You also have the advantages of have multiple computer labs throughout campus with access to printers and the internet. All of the dorms are acquiped with wireless internet.
Amber from Shelbina, MO
It is a pretty expensive university, because it is a small Christian private school. If it is the right place for you, it is worth the money. It is a great environment for learning with small classes, good professors, and good resources. It will be great if that is what you are looking for and they have your major. The school, in general, has a welcoming Christian environment. They follow through with what they say and keep in line with their beliefs.
