Listed Cost vs. Actual Cost
It’s important to remember your actual cost is what’s left over after you include all financial aid opportunities—scholarships, grants, loans, etc.—listed on your financial aid offer. Chances are, your actual cost may be significantly lower than the listed cost. Knowing the difference doesn’t have to be hard. We’re here to help you every step of the way.

These are non-governmental loans made available to students by banks for the purpose of paying for college expenses. They do need to be repaid with interest.
Scholarships for International Students
Because international students are not eligible for federal financial aid grants and loan opportunities made available through the FAFSA, we offer a number of scholarships for international students.
Interest-Free Payment Plan
We offer a flexible, interest-free monthly payment plan option that can help you reduce the need to borrow finances while paying off your remaining balance over time. Payment plans range from 4 to 12 months.
