Lock-In Your Tuition Rate from Day One

New associate, bachelor’s and master’s degree-seeking students qualify for the guarantee. New students enrolling in undergraduate and master’s certificate programs, and teacher licensure programs are also eligible.

The tuition guarantee applies to the standard per credit hour rate at the undergraduate and master’s level, as well as the international student (F-1) rate Other fees and charges are subject to change. A complete list of other fees and charges can be found here.

New students lock-in to the tuition rate that is in effect during the term they first register for classes. Students will continue toward their degree at that tuition rate as long as they remain actively enrolled.

To maintain the guaranteed rate, students must maintain active-enrollment status as defined in Franklin University’s Academic Catalog by completing at least one term per year. Completing the term means that the student has received a verified, transcripted grade in at least one course. If a student does not complete one trimester per year, the student is required to re-apply. At the point of re-application, students are subject to the tuition rate for new registrants.

The tuition guarantee enables students to accurately anticipate tuition costs over the course of an entire degree program. This knowledge can help students better leverage all the financial resources at their disposal including federal financial aid, federal and state grants, institutional scholarships, direct loans, and employer-provided education benefits. However, enrollment status could impact awards and certain grant awards may change due to funding from the federal or state government.

Yes. The tuition guarantee applies to the international student (F-1) rate. International (F-1) master’s students pay the standard master’s level rate, which is also included in the guarantee. Students taking a break term will still maintain eligibility for the guarantee.
