Notes

1. Tuition and fees are subject to change without notice any time prior to the first day of instruction
2. See the Registrar web site for online tuition rate information. Go to http://registrar.uic.edu and select Financial Matters.
3. In fall and spring, the Student-To-Student Assistance Program Fee and the Sustainability Fee are assessed. Neither are assessed in summer.
4. The CTA U Pass is assessed for students registered for 12 or more hours.
5. The transportation fee will be assessed to degree and non-degree students in the categories listed in note 4 above.
6. Undergraduate degree seeking students entering the University in Summer 2004 or after are provided a four year tuition guarantee. The purpose of the undergraduate guaranteed tuition plan is to provide a high degree of certainty about tuition costs for students and families. The plan applies to all undergraduate students enrolled in a baccalaureate degree program on one of the three campuses of the University of Illinois. The plan treats every student as part of a cohort defined by the date of entry to the University. Each cohort is guaranteed an unchanged tuition schedule for four years. Please note that fees are subject to change annually. For details on guaranteed undergraduate tuition see https://www.uaps.uillinois.edu/student_programs/guaranteed_tuition. Senate Bill 3222 allows students whose 4 years have expired to remain in the next most recently admitted cohort for 2 years. After the four year guarantee, students move to the next most favorable cohort rate in year 5, stay there for year 6. See http://www.ilga.gov/legislation/ and search for SB 3222.
7. The Academic Facilities Maintenance Fund Assessment (AFMFA) is assessed to all students. For less than 12 hour full-time enrollment, the AFMFA will be based on enrolled credit hours pro-rated according to range calculations.
8. In order to generate resources to improve the learning environment, a Library and Information Technology Assessment is assessed to all students. For students at less than full-time enrollment the assessment is pro-rated according to tuition range calculations.
9. Tuition differentials are applied to non-degree students in major specific non-degree program codes.
10. CLINIC INFRASTRUCTURE ASSESSMENT. In order to generate resources to improve the learning environment, ensure the availability of contemporary technology, and support clinical patient care learning experiences, the Clinic Education Fee has been replaced with a Clinic Infrastructure Assessment (CIA). The CIA is assessed to students in the DMD and DMD Advanced Standing programs each semester.
11. College of Medicine Disability Insurance Fee is assessed once a year in fall and covers the cost of disability insurance which ensures a student has a source of income should they become disabled during medical school. In the event a medicine student loses their ability to practice medicine in the future, this insurance also provides income to offset the financial loss.
12. International Student Fee. $130 in fall and spring; $65 summer. The University has approved an international student fee for all international students attending UIC. The fee will allow the Office of International Services to continue to provide essential services, upgrade technologies used for student advising, increase programming options, and host cultural events to increase and expand upon the “UIC Experience.” All incoming international students are charged an Orientation/Arrival Fee to cover the costs of initial arrival services and programs.
13. Non-resident undergraduate non-degree and degree seeking international students entering Fall 2020 and later are assessed a $818 increased tuition per semester prorated according to tuition ranges in fall/spring (summer $73 per credit hour).

15. A New Student Fee is assessed of $225 for new freshman and $150 for new transfers. This fee supports the Office of New Student and Family Programs in provision of transitional programs including new student orientation, welcome activities, and other services. Please consult the Office of New Student and Family Programs for details on additional fees beyond the basic fee than may be assessed for additional family members at orientation, and no show fees.
16. International students in the College of Medicine will pay $5,000 tuition surcharge per semester above the non-resident rate.
17. Tuition and Fee information related to UIC Regional sites. UIC offers various programs at regional sites in Illinois including Urbana, Quad Cities, Springfield, Rockford, and Peoria. Due to proximity, certain fees are not assessed at regional sites or fees are assessed through a sister campus. In addition, there are certain exceptions to assessment of non-resident tuition. This footnote seeks to set out regional site tuition and fee nuances. Nursing students at Urbana are assessed UIC tuition, UIC differentials, and UIC assessments, with Urbana campus fees. Nursing students at Springfield are assessed UIC tuition, UIC differentials, with Springfield campus fees and assessments. At Quad Cities, the UIC Health Service Fee and CTA U Pass is not assessed, and graduate level nursing at Quad Cities does not assess non-resident tuition.
