Multiple Values

Year

Looking at historical prices for tuition at Marquette gets complicated for a couple reasons. First off, prior to 2003, tuition prices varied by college. We included prices for the three colleges that stayed relatively the same throughout the past half-century.

nal tuition price change

But prices also change over time. We've adjusted prices to two different indexes: the Consumer Price Index, measuring the changes in general prices in the U.S., and the Higher Education Price Index, which is used by colleges. Some say looking at prices having to do with higher education is more relevant while others say general prices are more meaningful for students and families. You can decide which you prefer.
