Program Fees Explained

To benefit our students, we have condensed multiple fees associated with various courses into a single comprehensive fee for each year of the GEP, DNP, or PGC curriculum, respectively. This approach simplifies fee billing and ensures that all essential components of your educational experience are covered.
Below is a breakdown of the updated fees:
 
GEP Fee:
  • Supports the GEP Year experience throughout the fall, spring, and summer terms of the pre-licensure year.
  • Covers clinical aspects of the curriculum, including simulations, standardized patient experiences (OSCE), software access, preceptor stipends, lab supplies, and other essential student support services.
