At the current published rates, an estimated total tuition, fees and living expense price for a 2 year associate degree at Advanced Technology Institute is $51,866 for students graduating in normal time. This methodology for estimating the 2 year cost is a straight multiple of the most recent reported annual total cost and does not factor in tuition increases during the time you're in school.

Affording Student Loan Payments and Post Graduation Salary

Can I afford to attend Advanced Technology Institute? In the end, the answer comes down a determination if you will earn enough to comfortably pay back a student loan with your post graduation salary. This is an extremely important point to consider. In order to afford student loan payments and still meet all your other costs of living, it is recommended not to borrow more than you can pay back using 10% of your monthly income earned after graduation. If you're considering attending Advanced Technology Institute, you need to carefully consider if it will be realistic to make the post graduation loan payments based on your expected salary.

Using the 10% of salary threshold, an annual income of $50,513.96 would be needed to afford a $420.95 monthly payment in the example $39,706.00 loan modeled above.
