Program Specific Fee

In addition to regular college fees, a fee is assessed each semester for all students admitted in the nursing program. Part-time students will be assessed this fee for six semesters, the usual length of time required to complete the nursing program. These fees are published annually in the college's schedule of Scholarships, Tuition and Fees.
