Process & Timeline for Awarding of Scholarships

Scholarships range from $3,000 up to the full cost of tuition. Every student admitted to the program will be given full consideration for a scholarship. No separate application is necessary to be considered. There will be no tuition increases for the second year of this two-year program and the scholarship will automatically renew if the student meets the GPA requirement for their scholarship. Students may also apply for federal financial aid, if eligible.
