Student Consumer Information

At Computer Systems Institute, we want you to be able to make an informed choice about your education. Education is a life-changing experience, and we believe that students should enter into it fully prepared with the knowledge of what they are getting into and how aligns with their ultimate career goals. CSI is committed to the principle of promoting access to information so that students, parents, counselors, and anyone else seeking assistance from our institution are able to make informed decisions about postsecondary education.

With that in mind we have assembled all the student financial and academic resources here in one easy-to-find location to make it simple for you to look up program specifics as well as tuition and loan matters. If you have questions that extend beyond these guides, please drop by one of our campuses (in Illinois at Skokie, the Chicago Loop, Lombard, Gurnee, Elgin, or Charleston, MA) or call the college directly to speak with a representative who can help you.
