For 2025-26, reported full-time undergraduate tuition was $14,100 for both Arizona residents and out-of-state students, with no separately reported required undergraduate fees. Part-time undergraduate tuition was $460 per credit. Reported full-time graduate tuition was $8,280, with a $460 per-credit part-time graduate charge. These figures describe tuition, not the full expense of attendance.
Students must also budget for books, transportation, and personal expenses. The room-and-board benchmark should not be added to tuition and described as a complete cost-of-attendance estimate: it does not account for those other expenses or establish what a particular student will be charged. A separate published full-time tuition figure of $14,100 appears in a later cost listing, illustrating why applicants should obtain a billable, program-specific estimate for their actual entry year rather than combine figures from different reporting periods.
Aid can materially change the amount a student pays. In 2024-25 reporting, all students counted in the applicable aid measure received some form of financial aid, and the average undergraduate grant award across listed sources was $10,418. Nine percent received student loans. Those institutional averages do not describe an individual award. For students in the reported $48,001-$75,000 family-income category, average net price was $15,617; net price incorporates the broader cost of attendance and grant aid, so it is not interchangeable with tuition alone.
Students interested in earning money while attending IBCS should distinguish a paid campus job from an internship required for academic credit. Institutional reporting indicates an internship requirement, but students should confirm how it applies to their specific program and whether placements are paid.
Federal Work-Study, when awarded to an eligible student by a participating institution, provides the opportunity to earn wages through an approved job; it is not a tuition discount or a guarantee of employment. Applicants should ask IBCS's financial aid office whether Work-Study is offered for their enrollment year, whether they must submit the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA), and how available positions are advertised. They should ask separately about ordinary part-time campus jobs, which need not depend on a Work-Study award.
For career development, the most concrete question is how students obtain and document their program's practical experience. Applicants can ask who approves internships, whether the college helps identify placements, and what supervision and hours the degree requires. Those answers are more useful than assuming that an internship leads to a job offer.
