All colleges and universities are required to have a net price calculator, but they're not all standardized. Institutions use different information and formulas to calculate net price, and some use out-of-date costs. Completing a net price calculator takes about 20 minutes and requires students or parents to answer questions about the parents’ income, taxes and assets.
