Estimated Cost of Attendance

Tuition and Variable Expenses for the current year for the Master of Science in Nursing (MSN) program are listed below.

The Estimated Cost of Attendance equals Direct Charges + Variable Expenses. These are estimates and may vary. Prior to each term, a student will be able to view their term statement (charges and anticipated financial aid for that specific term). The Estimated Cost of Attendance below is required by federal regulations to determine how much financial aid a student is eligible to receive. This includes:

  • Housing
  • Food
  • Textbooks
  • Computer
  • Personal Expenses
  • Transportation Expenses

The following is based on 6 credit hours per semester for three terms. Financial Aid, if awarded, will use a three-term attendance pattern (summer, fall and spring) and aid will be distributed over three terms. MSN students do not need to complete an application for summer aid since students may receive financial aid up to the amount of their calculated Estimated Cost of Attendance.

Federal regulations require institutions provide an allowance for the costs associated with obtaining a license, certification, or a first professional credential, for a student in a program that prepares them to enter a profession that requires such a qualification. Institutions are permitted to use an average. If you are taking such an exam for this academic year, add $264 to the total cost of attendance (note: this is not a charge to your bill) and contact the Financial Aid office as it may allow for an increase in your educational loan(s).

* MSN programs have on-going per-term fees starting with Fall 2026 starts. For Summer 2026 starts, MSN programs have a one-time program fee ranging from $250 - $1,500, depending on the chosen track. The appropriate fee will be added to the student's Total Cost of Attendance for financial aid purposes.
