Tuition FAQ

Do I have to pay off my full semester one tuition before moving on to my next semester? 

No! If you've chosen a monthly payment plan for your online health care management classes and are still making payments when you complete semester 1, your tuition balance will be rolled into the tuition total for your next semester. This can increase the cost of your monthly payments.
