Cost of Attendance

Our Financial Aid Promise
At Erikson, we promise that the need-based grant that you receive for the first year of your studies is guaranteed for the subsequent years as long as you maintain good academic standing in your degree program.
We award over $2 million in grants and scholarships to our degree and certificate students each year. The cost of attendance illustration assumes that students will be enrolled in a two-year program and will enroll in the number of credits indicated for the first year of each program.
Tuition expenses for students enrolled in the three-year program will be lower since you will enroll for fewer credits in the fall and spring semesters. Summer tuition assumes enrollment in one three-credit class, but may be higher for some programs or for students who choose to take additional courses in the summer term.
