Cost of Attendance
The Cost of Attendance budget is to assist you in planning for the costs associated with your education for the current academic year. These costs are average cost estimates based on full-time enrollment for a dependent or independent student. The Cost of Attendance should not be confused with the costs that will show directly on your Billing Statement.
The Cost of Attendance is the cornerstone of establishing your financial need, and it sets a limit on the total aid that you may receive. The Cost of Attendance includes Direct Costs - those paid directly to CEI, such as tuition and it also includes Indirect Costs -those that will not be on your bill, such as books, personal expenses, transportation, and room and board.
The current 2019-20 tuition rate is $129 per credit for Bonneville County residents. The Out-of-District rate is $179 per credit; Out-of-State rate is $258 per credit.
