Â鶹´«Ã½ Cost Comparison

Cost is an important consideration in choosing a study abroad program, and it is common to experience some "sticker shock" when you review the total estimated expenses for a program. Your study abroad program may be more or less expensive than the same quarter(s) at Â鶹´«Ã½.

The information on this page is intended to provide some context and help you understand how your program's costs compare to the estimated cost of Â鶹´«Ã½ for the same academic period.

If you are a financial aid recipient, keep in mind that your financial aid will be adjusted based on your program's costs; your family contribution (i.e., total out-of-pocket costs) should be the same as if you were in Evanston.

Â鶹´«Ã½ Costs 2024-2025

Keep in mind that some of these figures, like tuition and fees, are real costs (standard, unlikely to change), while other figures, such as room/board and personal expenses, are estimates (vary by student). Your actual living expenses, both in Evanston and abroad, will vary based on your personal spending habits.
