Net Price Calculator
The Net Price Calculator helps students explore options for financing their college education in advance of receiving an actual offer of financial aid. The estimates are based on a single academic year (fall and spring terms) of full-time attendance. The Net Price Calculator is not an application for financial aid or a guarantee of what you will receive. You will still need to apply for financial aid.
Cost of Attendance (COA) figures are based on selections of residency status for tuition purposes, home campus, degree program and housing plan. Please note these estimates include direct expenses UW-Green Bay charges students and other indirect living expenses that will not appear on an institutional bill.
You will need to enter an approximate Student Aid Index (SAI) along with your academic level and dependency status to receive an estimate of federal and state aid eligibility. We provide instructions for estimating your SAI through the College Board below. Please note many factors are considered when offering financial aid to students, including (but not limited to): deadlines, funding levels and family financial circumstances. Future costs and estimated aid are subject to change. Reductions in funding or changes in aid rules could impact future award eligibility. This calculator does not incorporate all possible sources of funding (e.g., Scholarships, Veteran Benefits)
1 Student Aid Index (SAI)
A key component to determining aid is the Student Aid Index (SAI) which is a measurement of your family’s financial strength. Each year that you wish to be considered for financial aid, your family will complete a Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA). That form, once processed by the federal government, will calculate your SAI. The Federal Student Aid Estimator SAI Calculator provides a preliminary estimate of what that SAI might be. Again, it is an estimate and will vary based on the federal formula and the accuracy of the data you provide.
2 Calculate Your Estimates
Now that you have your Student Aid Index (SAI), update your Student Profile in the calculator below and generate an estimate of your net college costs. Remember, this is an estimate and not your actual Financial Aid offer. You will still need to apply for financial aid.
- Enter your Student Aid Index (SAI) in the Approximate SAI field.
Don't enter a value of 0 (zero) unless the Federal Student Aid Estimator SAI estimate in step one gives you a 0 (zero) SAI value. - Verify the remaining information in the student profile. Click Calculate.
- Scroll down to the estimate results to see your estimated cost of attendance, need, grants, scholarships and other aid.

Values depend on the accuracy of financial information submitted to the Federal Student Aid Estimator in Step 1 to approximate a Student Aid Index (SAI). Future costs and estimated aid are subject to change. Reductions in funding or changes in aid rules could impact future award eligibility.

What is the Net Price Calculator?
UW-Green Bay provides this Net Price Calculator as a tool for early financial planning for college. The calculator is an approximation of federal and state aid eligibility for undergraduate students planning to attend UW-Green Bay. It isn’t an actual offer of financial assistance. It’s purely informational. Use this for a rough guess when you’re planning how to pay for college. Many factors are considered when offering financial aid to students including, but not limited to: deadlines, federal and state funding levels and family financial circumstances. This calculator provides an estimate and it may not incorporate all possible offering considerations. For example, scholarships that a student receives are not factored into this tool; however, these funds typically impact a student’s calculated financial need.Estimate Disclaimer
The aid estimate is not binding on the Department of Education, the school, or the state. This calculator provides an unofficial estimate of your financial aid eligibility in accordance with consumer information guidelines under Section 132(h) of the Higher Education Act. The use of this calculator does not constitute an actual application for financial aid. Students must complete the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) and be admitted to UW-Green Bay in order to be eligible for, and receive, an actual financial aid offer that may include grant, loan or work study assistance.
Aid offers shown assume funding is available in all programs at the time eligibility is determined. However, many programs have limited funding and will not be offered once funds have been exhausted. Typically, the Federal Pell Grant and Federal Direct Loan programs do not run out of funds.
In 2022-2023, 53% of full-time, first-time students entering college at UW-Green Bay received grant/scholarship aid. You are encouraged to submit the FAFSA as soon as possible after October 1 each year.
