Tuition
All students will be charged tuition each quarter. Tuition for DePaul is due two weeks prior to the beginning of each quarter. You will be charged a late fee if you do not pay on time. If you would like to pay on a different schedule, you can choose an alternative payment options online in Campus Connection. Tuition varies according to major and level of education. To determine your tuition and fee cost, please visit Student Financial Accounts.
If you are an exchange student paying tuition to your home university, then DePaul will not charge you tuition for the academic terms of your specific program. However, if you enroll in additional terms that are not included in your program, then you will be responsible to pay tuition for those terms. (December Intercession or Summer classes may not be included; please contact ISS or your home university to confirm if you are unsure.) Please note that students participating in exchange programs must still pay the fees below.
U-Pass
This is a public transportation pass for all full-time DePaul students that will allow you to use the trains and buses during the academic term with a student discount. DePaul University purchases this pass for you and then you will be responsible for paying DePaul to cover this cost each quarter you are on campus. The fee will be applied to your DePaul student account each quarter that you are on campus. All students must pay this fee. It is due before the term starts.
Housing
If you have chosen to live on campus, your housing fees will be charged automatically to your student account. Housing fees vary depending on the type of housing you have been assigned. Housing fees are due at the start of each academic term. You can read more about university housing options and fees online at the Housing website. If you have chosen to live off campus, then you will be responsible for making payments to your landlord according to your lease terms.
Meal Plans
If you are living on campus you are required to purchase a university meal plan. Fees for the meal plans vary depending on the type of meal plan you have selected. Meal plan fees are due at the start of each academic term. If you are living off campus, you can elect to purchase a university meal plan, but this is not required.
