Financial Aid

Great Value


At Lewis University, we believe in a very simple equation:

Quality + Affordability = Great Value

Quality

  • Cited by U.S. News and World Report as “Top Tier” and The Princeton Review as “A Midwest Best”, Lewis University is one of seven universities in the United States sponsored by the De La Salle Christian Brothers.

Affordability

  • In the Chicago Sun-Times 2006 Annual Tuition Survey, Lewis University is listed as the most affordable Catholic university in the Chicago metropolitan area. In addition, over 85% of our students receive financial assistance to attend.

Great Value

  • Instruction is done by qualified faculty, not teaching assistants. 13 to 1 student to faculty ratio.
  • 90% of classes have fewer than 30 students. Average class size is 26.
  • Over 60 academic programs to choose from.
  • Comprehensive opportunities of a large university with the convenience and accessibility of a small college.
  • Career and professional preparation that ensures a bright future.
