Tuition and Fees

The average cost of a semester of study at the Chicago campus includes tuition, room and board, required fees, and medical insurance; it is estimated at roughly $14,000 depending on course enrollment and student lifestyle preferences (this estimate does not include books, supplies, or personal expenses). Due to the generosity and sacrificial giving of supporters of Moody, Chicago undergraduates may be eligible for full coverage of their tuition cost. The FAFSA is required to receive the Chicago Undergraduate Tuition Grant. See Financial Aid for details and eligibility requirements.

To estimate your costs per semester, please view the Fees List. Please be advised that this list may reflect the fees for the current year and are subject to change for the next academic year.

A complete list of Tuition and Fees is found in the Undergraduate Student Catalog.

Payment Deadline

Balances are due in full August 1 for the fall semester unless enrolled in the Moody Payment Plan. A $25 late fee will be charged monthly to students with an outstanding balance who are not enrolled in the payment plan. 

Please Note:
If students are expecting institutional scholarships, outside scholarships, or loans to help cover their balance and they are not awarded by Moody's due date, students are still responsible for making payments on time for the amount due. Contact student.accounts@moody.edu with any questions regarding amounts due.
