Projected Costs Between $37,052 and $300,361 For a Four Year Degree. Between $17,644 and $147,767 For a Two Year Degree.

It can be a bit scary to look at the total projected cost of a college education over the course of a multi-year degree, however, doing so will help you better understand the financial commitment you are making.

The overall cost for on-campus, in-state students to attend University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign in 2019 - 2020 was $32,454. To calculate future costs, we looked at the prior five years of data and determined that this cost increased an average of 0.5% each year.

If this trend continues, we expect the full cost for incoming freshmen to be $32,760 during their first year. By their senior year, that cost will be approximately $33,224, for a bachelor degree candidate ($32,914 for an associate degree candidate) for a total of $131,966 over the course of four years ($65,674 over the course of two years). These numbers do not take into consideration financial aid, which reduces this overall cost by varying amounts per student.

The cost for out-of-state students is more, with an overall expected four-year cost of $217,501 based on a yearly growth rate of 1.6%. The expected two-year cost is $107,003.

Remember, the full costs quoted above are not what most students will pay, and the net price varies quite a bit based on individual circumstances.
