2024 – 2025  STUDENT BUDGETS

A full-time student budget will be used by the Financial Aid Office to calculate the estimated need for students expected to enroll for two academic terms (typically fall and spring).  Additional budget allowances for handicap costs ($1,200) will be made for students who apply and do not have such costs covered by outside agencies. RN, LPN and Respiratory Care students will be provided with an additional allowance of $3,000 for uniforms and travel.  Out-of-state students have an increased tuition amount.
