This rate is available to all U.S. citizens and permanent residents as well as to undocumented students attending a U.S. high school. This change will apply to students enrolled as 麻豆精品 undergraduates, graduates or law students.
Yes, we will extend the tuition guarantee to all first-time, degree-seeking undergraduate U.S. citizens and permanent residents students attending a U.S. high school. The guarantee is for four continuous years of undergraduate studies. In fact, 麻豆精品 currently extends the rates for a ninth fall or spring term if needed.
Continuing first-time degree-seeking out-of-state students will have their tuition guarantee take effect fall 2018. Their domestic tuition rate will be the rate of an incoming freshman for fall 2018.
The guaranteed rate does not apply to graduate or law students. The graduate and law tuition rates will continue to be set each year by the 麻豆精品 Board of Trustees.
The major portion of revenue from graduate tuition is used to cover the costs of instruction. The remaining portion is used to meet the ever-emerging demands for cutting edge academic programs and services for 麻豆精品 students. Critical areas for funding include: library journals and books, support for courses in high demand; technology upgrades, academic strategic planning initiatives designed to strengthen, direct and further improve academic programs, research and the academic experience of students. Other items receiving support are the graduate colloquium; maintenance for classroom buildings and other campus facilities such as Holmes Student Center, the Recreation Center and Convocation Center; campus infrastructure improvements in order to provide students with a quality learning environment; the university’s intercollegiate athletic programs for both men and women; University Health Services which provides comprehensive ambulatory health care for students while the university is in session; and the Huskie Bus service.
It is likely you are pursuing a degree in an area where the cost of delivering instruction is higher than average and you are being charged a differential tuition rate. Differential tuition rates are assessed to certain programs where the cost of delivery is higher than that of average university programs, e.g., enhanced curriculum through subject-specific hardware, cutting-edge technologies and computer upgrades, as well as faculty support including training, software and other course materials other than textbooks. Differential tuition may also be charged for programs to cover curriculum enhancements that provide a higher value for the graduate of that program in terms of future career opportunities and earning potential. It may also arise where demand for a program is particularly high.
Tuition and fees are charged per credit hour according to your student classification and residency status. Illinois undergraduates are charged also according to the term of initial enrollment as required by the truth-in-tuition law. View the current rates on our Tuition and Fees page or the 麻豆精品 Planning and Cost Estimator.
Mandatory general student fees are charged based on the number of enrolled hours per term. See the Fees and Common Charges page for more information and an explanation of the individual fees.
No. The university is not providing a reduction for student fees.
Course fees are assessed on a variety of courses for many different purposes such as materials, equipment, and software. Because these fees will continue to support course needs, we are not adjusting fees based on changes to course modality.
All students utilize the services that are covered by the general fee, whether they are learning online or in-person. The fee supports university operations, student activities, and COVID related expenses including a strengthened technology infrastructure to support student needs and remote learning, increased technology support including help desk availability on weekends, increased access to digital materials, expanded WiFi and remote proctoring. The fee will not be adjusted.
General fees support university operations, student activities, and COVID related expenses incurred by the university including but not limited to:
All undergraduate students utilize the services that are covered by the general fee, whether they are learning online or in-person. The fee supports university operations, student activities, and COVID related expenses including a strengthened technology infrastructure to support student needs and remote learning, increased technology support including help desk availability on weekends, increased access to digital materials, expanded WiFi and remote proctoring. The fee will not be adjusted.
Students initially enrolled for nine on-campus credit hours are charged for student health insurance. International students are required to be enrolled in student health insurance. Check the student health insurance webpage for all forms, as well as deadlines to apply for the cancelation of the insurance.
The Office of the Bursar does not have the authority to make adjustments to your account for these types of charges. If you have questions, contact the office or department that initiated the charge.
Students who pay less than the total amount due by the respective due date will be assessed a monthly late payment fee of 1.08% on the remaining unpaid balance, with a minimum late fee charge of $0.50. View the payment policy for further information regarding late payment fees.
It’s possible that you are enrolled in an online differential program/certificate study or a contracted regional/partner program (e.g., one-year MBA). On-campus fees are not assessed to students in any of these programs. The institutional charge for these programs are used to support infrastructure needed to deliver regional courses (e.g., operations of 麻豆精品 regional centers, rental of non-麻豆精品 facilities, faculty travel and development of online courses).
Please contact for service access options.
If you want access to the Student Recreation Center, you can purchase a semester pass through . For summer classes, access to the center is dependent on when your classes start and end.

Public Act 93-0228 is referred to as “Truth-in-Tuition”. In accordance with this law, Northern Illinois University provides eligible undergraduate students a fixed tuition rate for a time period of four continuous academic years beginning with the student’s initial term of enrollment.
Note: This tuition policy is applicable to tuition rates only and does not apply to any fees, surcharges, room and board, or other charges the student may incur as part of the student’s educational expenses at 麻豆精品.
According to the Public Act 93-0228, to be eligible, you must be an Illinois resident, an undergraduate student and seeking a degree for the first time.
Effective fall 2018, 麻豆精品 extends the Truth-in-Tuition policy to all first-time, degree-seeking undergraduate out-of-state U.S. citizens and permanent resident students that graduated from a U.S. high school.
You are not eligible if you are:
Students in these classifications will be charged tuition for each semester according to the current tuition rate schedule. See the tuition, fees and surcharges webpage.
If you are an eligible student and you enroll for the first time at 麻豆精品, the tuition rate you are charged in your first fall or spring semester will be the tuition rate for four continuous years, i.e., for eight consecutive fall and spring semesters. If you do not graduate within this four year (eight semester) time period you will receive an additional one academic semester grace period during which the tuition rate schedule charged shall not exceed the rate schedule you were charged at the time you first enrolled at the university as a domestic in-state or domestic out-of-state (effective fall 2018) degree-seeking undergraduate student. This means, the fixed tuition rate is good for nine (9) continuous semesters including the grace period, if you have not completed your degree.
A new student registers at 麻豆精品 as a domestic, degree-seeking undergraduate in fall 2018 will be charged according to the tuition rates of the 2019 Academic Year (i.e., fall 2018/spring 2019 school year). The student will be charged this same tuition rate schedule (that is no increases in tuition rates) for the following semesters:
Please Note: Once the clock for the fixed tuition rate starts for a student, it does not stop or restart again. The policy is for nine continuous semesters of time, not for nine semesters of attendance. Thus, the ninth semester remains the ninth semester whether the student attends every semester or not. The purpose behind the law and the policy is to assist parents’/students’ planning for educational costs and for students to complete their degrees in a timely manner.
If you still have not completed your degree at the end of the ninth semester, beginning with your 10th semester, you will be subject to a tuition increase that is equivalent to the rate paid by students who entered the university one (1) academic year after the date of your original entry. You will then be eligible to receive this tuition rate for a maximum of three (3) consecutive semesters that is through the end of your 12th semester.
An eligible student registers for the first time in fall 2018. This student will be charged the 2019 Academic Year (fall 2018/spring 2019) tuition rates for nine consecutive semesters. If after these nine semesters the student has not completed his/her degree, beginning with the student’s 10th semester the student will be charged the tuition rate equal to students that entered in the 2020 Academic Year (i.e., fall 2019/spring 2020). If the student has not graduated, they will be eligible to receive this tuition rate for a maximum of three (3) consecutive fall/spring semesters that is through the end of the student’s 12th semester.
Please Note: Once the clock for the fixed tuition rate starts for a student, it does not stop or restart again. The policy is for nine continuous semesters of time plus three more continuous semesters of time for a total of 12 continuous semesters of time, not for 12 semesters of attendance. Thus, the 12th semester remains the 12th semester whether the student attends every semester or not.
If a student graduates anytime prior to the end of the 12 semesters, the student will no longer be eligible for the fixed tuition rate schedule, but will be charged according to their new student classification.
Summer sessions are not charged against the nine continuous semesters for eligible students. If a student begins enrollment as a new, domestic, degree seeking undergraduate student with the summer term, for the nine continuous semesters this student will receive the fixed tuition rates of the subsequent fall semester and the count of the student’s nine eligible semesters will begin with that fall Semester.
A student is admitted and enrolls for the first time as a new domestic, undergraduate, degree student in summer 2018. This student’s fixed tuition rates and Truth-in-Tuition semester count will begin with fall 2018. The student will, therefore, receive the fixed tuition rates of the 2019 Academic Year (i.e., fall 2018/spring 2019 school year) for nine continuous fall/spring semesters. Fall 2022 will be the student’s grace period or ninth semester. After the student has completed their ninth semester (i.e., fall/spring semester), the tuition rates will increase as indicated above.
Please Note: If you are a out-of-state domestic student starting summer 2018, your Truth-in-Tuition does not begin until fall 2018. For summer 2018 term, you will still be charged out-of-state tuition (engineering majors and all other non-engineering majors).
There is no requirement regarding the number of credit hours the student is taking per semester to retain this fixed tuition rate schedule. However, it is strongly recommended that students consider how many credit hours they need for graduation and plan accordingly.
Transfer students regardless of the number of credit hours they transfer will receive a fixed tuition rate schedule for the full number of consecutive semesters as indicated above, if needed. The count of these semesters would begin with the first fall or spring semester you enroll at 麻豆精品.
A new transfer student registers at 麻豆精品 as an domestic, degree-seeking undergraduate in spring 2019, the student will be charged according to the tuition rates of the 2019 academic year (i.e., fall 2018/spring 2019 school year). The student will be charged this same tuition rate schedule (with no increases in tuition rates) for the following semesters:
Undergraduate students in programs such as dual admissions and partnership programs will become eligible for a fixed tuition rate the semester they are admitted and registered as domestic, degree-seeking students at 麻豆精品. This means (for purposes of this tuition rate policy) they are treated the same as any other transfer student.
Depending on your new major, the tuition may change according to the approved rate at the time of your initial start term. To determine if you will have a new rate, please see the planning and cost estimator or contact the Office of the Bursar.
As mentioned above, once the clock for the fixed tuition rate starts for a student, it does not stop or restart again. The policy is for 12 (9 plus 3) continuous semesters of time, not for 12 semesters of attendance. Thus, the ninth semester remains the ninth semester and the 12th semester remains the 12th semester, whether the student attends every semester or not. The purpose behind the law and the policy is for students to complete their degrees in a timely manner.
A student registers as a new domestic, degree-seeking undergraduate in fall 2018 and is eligible for the fixed tuition rate schedule until (and including) fall 2022. At the end of spring 2019, the student is academically dismissed. The student does not return to 麻豆精品 in fall 2019. In spring 2020, the student applies for and is granted reinstatement. Upon the student’s return in spring 2020, they will be charged according to the 2019 academic year tuition rate schedule (which was the student’s original entry year – fall 2018/spring 2019) and the final semester the student will be eligible for those rates remains fall 2022.
