When you’re budgeting for your education, it helps to know what you’ll be paying. We’ve made it easy by breaking costs down for you with our standard cost of attendance estimate.
About these numbers
We’re showing you the cost of attendance for a full academic year (fall and spring semesters). Cut these numbers in half to figure out the cost of a single semester.
Tuition and fees outlined here are based on 12 to 18 credits per semester for undergraduates.
Your actual costs for food and housing, books and supplies, transportation, and personal expenses will vary based on:
The number of credit hours you take
Whether you’re an undergraduate or graduate student
Whether you’re an Indiana resident
Your personal choices
Your travel habits
Your cost of attendance may differ from these estimates. Visit the Student Center in One.IU for your specific budget.
