Costs and Funding

An investment in your health professions education is one that will pay you back many times over the course of your career.

We offer scholarships to approximately 20% of each entry-level class, based on the strength of your application. The scholarships cover varying amounts of the total cost of tuition and fees for your program, ranging from 25% to 100%.

Most students receive financial aid of some kind, including loans. The Institute also has several Graduate Assistantship (GA) positions available. These are part-time jobs on campus (about 6-10 hours/week) where students generally have the flexibility to schedule their own work hours in between classes. Information about how to apply for these opportunities is given to students the summer before matriculation.
