Tuition & Cost of Attendance
We understand that a college education is a big investment and making good decisions about how to finance that education can be overwhelming. We’re here to help!
An investment in your future
At first glance, tuition at any college can be rather jolting, but consider that the “sticker price.” Take a closer look and you’ll realize that the actual price is the sticker price MINUS the financial aid package — including scholarships, grants, loans and work programs — that our financial aid office will put together for you. This is often referred to as the “net price.”
If Champlain College is right for you, we will work with you toward meeting the cost. With our Count-On-It Financial Aid Guarantee, you can count on your merit scholarships from Champlain never declining as long as you are enrolled full time.
