Cost of Attendance - College is affordable!

Outstanding Education. Affordable Price.

An extraordinary education doesn’t have to come with an extraordinary price tag. At California State University Channel Islands (CI), we strive to keep your cost of attendance to a minimum. Out-of-state students may even find CI costs less than your own in-state education.
