Student Finance

At Chamberlain, we recognize that your education is a significant investment. More than 80 percent of Chamberlain students receive some form of financial aid. Financial aid is available in the form of federal and private loans, scholarships, grants and work-study to those who qualify. At Chamberlain, we actively work to keep costs down while maintaining the highest educational standards. We will do everything we can to help you earn your degree, including helping you identify all your financing options and helping you apply for financial assistance. For the most up-to-date information on tuition and expenses, refer to chamberlain.edu/tuition.

If you are planning to use financial aid, October is the time to renew your Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA®) at fafsa.ed.gov.

Chamberlain FAFSA school code: 006385

Indianapolis students, please include E02182 as your first school code (in addition to 006385) to be considered for Indiana state grant funds.

To assist you, utilize Financial Tools available on your student portal to help you understand your loan borrowing history, your academic progression in relationship to your aggregate loan limits and the impact of your academic and borrowing decisions on your student loan repayment amount. Visit community.chamberlain.edu and select Financial Tools. You will have access to create, monitor and edit an Estimated Financial Plan as you progress through your program.
