Tuition and Fees

The projected tuition for the clinical year is $4800.00.  Tuition is due in twelve monthly installments.  A student who withdraws or is dismissed from the program will receive no refund of tuition payments previously due.  Tuition is paid directly to the program except for specific universities who require their students to pay tuition to them.  These universities reimburse the program a portion of the tuition collected.  The student is responsible for any tuition not covered by the university payment.  Contact the program director for further details.

An acceptance deposit of $200.00 is required when a student accepts a position in the program.  A student who withdraws from the program prior to May 15 receives a $100.00 refund.  There is no refund of the acceptance deposit on or after May 15.

Textbooks and references are purchased by the program and loaned to the student for a fee of $200.00.  The acceptance fee is credited as the book loan fee.

The student is responsible for providing his or her own health insurance, meals, travel expenses, clothing, school supplies and housing during the program year.  The student is also responsible for any fees related to sitting for a national certification examination upon successful completion of the program. The student must purchase a general professional liability insurance policy in the amount of at least one million ($1,000,000) per occurrence and three million ($3,000,000) per annual aggregate. The program director will provide options for purchasing a policy upon acceptance in the program. Annual fees can range from $29.00 to $45.00.
