For 2024-25, reported full-time undergraduate tuition was $4,920, with $340 in required fees, for $5,260 in tuition and required fees for the academic year. The reported amounts were the same for in-state and out-of-state students. Part-time undergraduate tuition was reported at $205 per credit hour; an individual bill may also include applicable fees.
Tuition and fees are not the full cost of attendance. Housing, meals, books, supplies, transportation, and personal expenses can be consequential in Utqiaġvik, particularly for students who must fly to campus. A student should obtain a current, individualized cost-of-attendance estimate rather than add expenses from different academic years to the figures above.
Financial assistance can change the amount a student pays. The reported average net price for students in the lowest listed family-income group was $7,979; net price is an average after grant aid and includes more than the tuition bill. The aid data also show that the surveyed student group received financial aid at a high rate and that reported student-loan use was very low. Those statistics do not promise aid to a new applicant. Students seeking assistance should complete the applicable aid application and ask the financial aid office about federal and Alaska aid, institutional scholarships, eligibility rules, and deadlines.
Iḷisaġvik College students can seek career-planning support, but a campus job, a Federal Work-Study award, and an internship are different opportunities. None should be treated as an automatic part of an admission or financial aid offer.
Reported career services include individual and group career counseling, résumé preparation, interview workshops, career-interest testing, job listings, employer referrals, job fairs, and on-campus recruitment. These are ways to prepare and search; they are not verified employment outcomes or job guarantees.
Students interested in paid work should ask the financial aid office whether Federal Work-Study is offered for their aid year and whether they qualify. Work-Study is need-based aid earned through an eligible job, not a grant paid simply for enrolling. For ordinary part-time openings, students should ask how campus positions are advertised, what hours are available, and whether a job can accommodate their course schedule.
