Typically students are charged tuition based on their primary program of study; otherwise known as their major. The following per credit hour rates apply to specific online course sections. Independent non-degree and CITL admitted students will be charged the rate specific to the course section (CRN) in which they enroll. Rates are assessed by attributes placed on an individual CRN. CRNs without an attribute listed are assessed at the base rate. Students may view attributes on a CRN within the Student Self-Service Class Registration system using the instructions below.
Degree seeking iMBA, iMSA and iMSM students will be charged per credit hour tuition based on the CRN of enrollment according to the rates below.
The cost of attendance also includes indirect cost allowances for food, housing, books, supplies and other expenses. You will not be billed by the university for these costs unless you live in university housing. Use the Illinois Cost Calculator for an estimated cost of attendance.
