SIU Board of Trustees Approves SIUE Flat Undergraduate Tuition for 2020-21
The Southern Illinois University Board of Trustees today approved a tuition freeze for the second consecutive year for all new undergraduate students at SIUE, effective fall 2020. The board met on the Edwardsville campus.
Tuition for the 2020-21 academic year will remain $9,123 for new, full-time undergraduate students (15 hours per semester) entering fall 2020. Undergraduate students currently in a guaranteed tuition plan will also maintain their annual tuition rate.
“SIUE has traditionally been a leader among Illinois public, four-year higher education institutions in delivering the best educational experience at the most affordable price,” said Chancellor Randy Pembrook.
In fall 2017, in-state tuition became available to all new and continuing domestic undergraduate students. Offering in-state tuition to out-of-state students streamlines tuition rates and produces less confusing rate structures, while broadening the institution’s recruiting opportunities.
In fall 2020, all domestic graduate students will be charged the in-state graduate tuition rate of $8,155.20 (12 hours per semester) for the second consecutive year.
International students will continue to be assessed a 2.5 times surcharge on the in-state rate, unless they qualify for an alternate tuition rate.
For the third consecutive year, School of Dental Medicine (SDM) tuition will remain the same. In-state SDM students will pay an annual tuition of $29,998. Since fall 2019, the SDM has offered the in-state rate to all new and continuing domestic dental students in its traditional program to build and maintain a diverse student population. This does not include the SDM International Advanced Placement Program, which remains at 2.3 times the in-state dental rate.
The School of Pharmacy (SOP) in-state tuition will also remain flat at $24,096 for new and continuing domestic pharmacy students. International pharmacy students pay 1.2 times the SOP rate.
