Sayed’s Answer

To determine college cost, a good place to start is either the college website under Tuition and Fees (T&F) or to view multiple colleges and universities, you can visit US News & World Report link below.

https://www.usnews.com/education

You can look at best colleges/universities ranking, profile and other details. You can also compare colleges by cost, ranking and any other criteria that interests you.

In addition to T&F, make sure to calculate Room and Board (if staying on campus) or living expenses like rent, utilities, food etc. (if staying off campus). PLUS Books and other Miscellaneous costs

Simeon’s Answer

You should have a log-in provided for you to sign into your student portal and view your financial information through the college's web portal. Additionally, if you're still not sure, you should call your university's finance department. Their employees will be knowledgeable about your questions and will be able to easily guide you to additional resources.

Tony’s Answer

I would go to the University web site and search for tuition/costs. After adding up the costs of tuition, you need to factor in books and then cost of dorms/apartments/food, transportation, etc. You should always apply for scholarships/financial aid wherever you can find them. You will need to go to the FAFSA site and they can also help. Univ of Chicago is one of the best private schools to my knowledge, so I would think that they may be quite pricey. Also, yearly costs may increase so you have to factor that in. if $ is an issue, many students go to a Junior/community college first, get great grades and then transfer to a 4 year college for their BA/BS

Tony recommends the following next steps:

Scholarships - search online for scholarships
Check junior colleges for transfer rates to your college of choice
