Committed to Affordability
At North Park University, our commitment to keeping college affordable is part of who we are.
We provide a powerful college experience in Chicago, characterized by access to world-class scholars, deep discussions of life’s biggest questions, and intercultural education.
If you choose to make an investment in yourself at North Park, you’ll get an outstanding academic and community experience at the best price we can offer.
Our tuition and fees are approximately $9,500 less than the national average for private, four-year colleges and universities. What other schools may appear to offer in financial aid, we provide in reduced tuition—you receive the immediate benefit of a more affordable cost overall, not just a discount.
