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.

Average Rating
It is the cheapest of the University of Illinois campuses, and yet you still get the U of I education.
Samantha from Palatine, IL
Tuition for this university is pretty cheap and you get help from the professors one on one if needed.
Omar from Aurora, IL
I am still a little worried about paying for college, but that would be the same for every college. As far as price goes, it really isn't that bad at all.
Cory from Petersburg, IL
its the cheapest U of I degree
Heather from Bloomington, IL
You get your tuition paid for if you have good ACT scores.
Michael from Shelbyville, IL
Cheaper and smaller U of I school. Professors know your name, no lecture halls! Same U of I diploma as sister campus.
