Tuition & Fees

Milligan is committed to keeping college affordable for our students. We’ll work with you individually every step of the way to help investigate all the options available for financing your education.

Don’t shop by “sticker price.” Most students receive substantial financial aid, so your actual cost is usually much lower than the published cost.

Explore all options with scholarships and grants, estimate your actual cost using our Net Cost Calculator, and then consider the options to manage your balance.
