With an affordable tuition rate of $265 per credit hour, many students may find that federal financial aid significantly reduces their out-of-pocket cost. Students who complete the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) and demonstrate high financial need may qualify for federal Pell Grant funding that can cover the full cost of general and instructional tuition and fees for full-time enrollment, defined as 12 to 18 credit hours, for degree-seeking and select certificate-seeking programs.
Because financial aid eligibility is determined individually through the FAFSA and depends on several factors, including income, household size, prior aid usage, and federal lifetime limits, actual awards will vary. Some students may qualify for full Pell funding, while others may receive partial grants or additional forms of aid. We strongly encourage all students to complete the FAFSA to determine their eligibility. Our financial aid team is available to help guide you through the process and explain your options.
