About This School

Chamberlain University-Illinois is a private for-profit institution located in Addison, Illinois with approximately 14,027 undergraduate students enrolled. Chamberlain University-Illinois has an open or accessible admissions process, with an acceptance rate of 83%. The average net price after financial aid is $31,837 per year. The graduation rate is 42%, and the typical graduate earns $60,400 within 10 years of enrollment.

The numbers tell a mixed story here: a 50% graduation rate means roughly half of students who start don't finish, which is a real concern worth taking seriously before enrolling. That said, graduates who do complete the program earn a median of $60,400 ten years out — solid for a nursing-focused school — and median debt of $16,458 is relatively manageable. Worth considering if you're committed to a healthcare career and have a clear plan to stay on track, but go in with eyes open about the completion risk.
