The American InterContinental University System maintained its tuition fees for the 2022-23 school year, as revealed in the latest report, according to the latest disclosure from the National Center for Education Statistics.

Students enrolled at the four-year private for-profit institution paid $12,422 this year, a slight increase of $4 from the $12,418 charged during the 2021-22 academic year.

Approximately 2% of the undergraduate students at the university are residents of Arizona, while the remaining 98% come from other states.

Data indicates that 83% of full-time undergraduates who began studies at the American InterContinental University System in 2022-23 received some form of student financial aid. Specifically, 686 students were awarded grants or scholarships totaling $4.5 million, and 645 students obtained student loans exceeding $4.3 million.

Across the entire undergraduate population, 9,590 students received grants or scholarships amounting to $53.5 million. Additionally, 7,495 students borrowed $58.6 million in federal student loans.

Undergraduate education costs have seen a significant increase over the past few decades. Data shows a 169% rise in the average total cost, including tuition, fees, room, and board, between 1980 and 2020.

According to a 2023 College Board report, in-state students at public universities paid an average of $11,260, while out-of-state students paid $29,150 in the 2023-24 academic year.

Meanwhile, student loan debt has steadily increased over the last 30 years, reaching $1.75 trillion in 2024, averaging a total of $28,950 per borrower. Federal loans make up 92% of the debt, with over half of students at both public and private four-year colleges graduating with student loans.

Available data sometimes exceeds 100% due to rounding and administrative calculations.
