Tuition & Fees

Invest in your future with St. Luke’s affordable per-credit and clinical fee structure.

Invest in Your Education, Invest in Yourself

Education is one of the most valuable investments a person can make. At St. Luke’s College of Health and Sciences, we strive to keep higher education affordable. St. Luke’s tuition structure includes both per-credit tuition and clinical fee. Per-credit tuition is charged for all classes; clinical fee is only charged when the student is enrolled in courses specific to their program of study.

The cost of attendance (COA) for a university is the total amount of money needed to attend an institution for one year. It includes the cost of tuition and fees, food and housing, books and supplies, transportation and miscellaneous costs. The costs are calculated based on the degree program a student is pursuing, credit hours enrolled each term, and the length of enrollment each term.

Although the College does not provide on-campus housing, federal financial aid regulations require institutions to include an allowance for living expenses in the cost of attendance. This housing and food allowance represents an estimate of reasonable off-campus living costs in our local area. It is not a charge from the College, but it is included to ensure students may be considered for financial aid sufficient to help cover educational and living expenses while enrolled.

In addition to ordinary materials, supplies, and textbooks purchased by all students, certain programs and courses require special materials, supplies or other items due to their specialized coursework. These may include small equipment and tools, uniforms and shoes, health insurance, health screening, immunizations, CPR or first aid certification, background checks and clearances, etc. These costs are not charged directly by the College and require the student to make additional out-of-pocket purchases.

Tuition Rate & Timely Payments

The tuition rate is determined by the administration of St. Luke’s College of Health Sciences. Periodically, an in-depth analysis is performed to reevaluate the fee structure. Students may pre-register for courses following the acceptance into a given program and prior to paying their tuition.

Students are not considered officially enrolled into the College until all fees are paid for each semester. Students may be prohibited from participating in any classroom or clinical experience until tuition is paid in full. Tuition payment plans may be negotiated on an individual basis with the Administrative Coordinator, Financial Aid.

Failure to comply with negotiated payment plans will prevent the student from taking final exams. The College may refuse to issue grades or transcripts and deny registration or readmission to students who owe money to the College or have failed to return College property (i.e. books or equipment).

Please Note:  Students may pre-register for courses following their acceptance into a given program and prior to paying their tuition. Failure to show up for a class will not dismiss student financial obligations. Registered students must officially withdraw by completing the Withdrawal/Leave of Absence Form or by contacting their academic advisor or program director.

Pursuant to Act 35 of 2023 (Article XXIII-A), the advertising, marketing or merchandising of credit cards to students by vendors is prohibited by St. Luke’s College of Health Sciences.

The College’s email system or web pages may not be used for advertising or solicitation of credit cards to students. No campus employee, student group, or campus department may accept financial support or other goods and services from credit card issuers or vendors in exchange for allowing them to market credit cards to students.
