EDUCATION AT AN AFFORDABLE COST

We know that our future students and current students work hard to balance academic and personal success in a fiscally responsible way. With the tuition guarantee, new freshman students can rest assured that their tuition will remain low and predictable for any degree they finish within four years. Transfer students can take advantage of the tuition guarantee as well. The length of the guarantee is dependent on transfer credit hours.
