How Do I Calculate My Expected Cost to Attend Northeastern Illinois University?

In accordance with federal guidelines, Northeastern Illinois University (NEIU) is happy to provide students and their families with a tool called the Net Price Calculator so that the student can estimate the costs to attend NEIU and to begin the financial planning process.

The Net Price Calculator is designed to provide the student an estimate of the total cost that a new first-year, undergraduate student can expect to pay to attend NEIU plus an estimate of the financial assistance a student is estimated to receive to assist in meeting those expenses.

Important Notice:

The Net Price Calculator is not an official application for financial aid. Students must complete the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) to be considered for financial assistance at NEIU.
The results provided are only an estimate based on award rules and cost of attendance for the 2023-24 academic year and do not guarantee the actual financial aid you will receive.
The estimate is subject to the accuracy of the information you provide, and may change if financial or other family characteristics change, and does not reflect any special circumstances, which may be considered when you officially file for aid.
If you are not eligible to complete the FAFSA, you are encouraged to submit the Alternative Application for Illinois Financial Aid (Alternative Application) in order to be considered for Monetary Award Program (MAP) grant funding.

Please read:

By clicking the link below, the student acknowledges that he or she understands that the information provided is only an estimate and does not represent a financial determination, actual award of financial assistance, or final net price. The estimate shall not be binding on the Secretary of Education, Northeastern Illinois University or the State.

I accept the terms stated above.
