Cost Overview

Families at Ilisagvik College pay an average of $5,542 per year after aid, making this one of Alaska's most affordable college options. The published tuition is $5,260 for everyone (no difference between in-state and out-of-state), but room and board adds $13,000, bringing total attendance costs to $19,060 annually. Over four years, students can expect to spend about $22,000 in net costs, or $76,000 in total attendance costs if living on campus.

Only 10.69% of students receive financial aid, which is unusually low for a community college. This happens because many students are working adults from Inupiat communities who don't qualify for traditional aid or attend part-time. The college serves as Alaska's only tribally controlled institution, so it gets federal funding that helps keep costs down for Alaska Native students. Students who do receive institutional grants get an average of $6,022, and remarkably, zero percent take out federal loans. Local Alaska Native students get the best financial deal here.
