Financial assistance, available as scholarships, loans, and work-study, is a way schools lower the price of attendance so many students can enroll. However, some types of aid are more desirable than others, and some students will receive more than others.
At Career Center of Southern Illinois, 97% of the incoming full-time class was awarded financial aid (about 30 incoming students).
| Type of Aid | % of Freshmen Receiving | Average Amount |
|---|---|---|
| Grant or scholarship aid (all sources) | 90% | $9,601 |
| Institutional grants & scholarships | 19% | $3,000 |
| Federal Pell grants | 90% | $5,627 |
| State/local grants | 29% | $10,364 |
| Federal student loans | 77% | $7,025 |
Grants and scholarships are the most valuable form of aid because, unlike loans, they never have to be repaid. Here, about 87% of undergraduates were awarded grant or scholarship aid averaging $9,273 (among about 97 students).
| Award | % of Undergrads Receiving | Average Amount |
|---|---|---|
| Grant or scholarship aid (all sources) | 87% | $9,273 |
| Federal Pell grants | 74% | $5,078 |
| Federal student loans | 82% | $6,793 |
On-campus students receiving title-IV aid were awarded grants averaging $8,651.
Because need-based aid scales with family income, what students actually pay differs sharply across income brackets.
| Family Income | Average Net Price |
|---|---|
| $0 – $48,000 | $21,769 |
| $30,001 – $75,000 | $19,808 |
Each amount is the average cost remaining once grant aid is subtracted, by income band.
The net price strips out grant and scholarship aid from the sticker price to show roughly what families really pay.
| Cohort | Average Net Price |
|---|---|
| On-campus title-IV students | $25,204 |
| Off-campus title-IV students | $23,000 |
