Tuition and Fees

Anticipated tuition for 2008-2009 (subject to change by the Board of Trustees without notice): $29,030 for Florida residents and $35,545 for out-of-state students. In addition, a microscope/lab fee of $100 for the first year and a student activities fee of $250/per term and an annual Health Professions Division fee of $125 are required of all students.

Eligible students must request in-state tuition on application. For tuition purposes, a student’s Florida residency status (in-state or out-of-state) will be determined based upon initial matriculation and will remain the same throughout the entire enrollment of the student at NSU. Accordingly, tuition will not be adjusted as a result of any change in status after initial enrollment registration.

• Acceptance Fee - $950. This fee is required to reserve the accepted applicant’s place in the entering first-year class. This advance payment will be deducted from the tuition payment due upon receipt of NSU invoice, but is not refundable in the event of a withdrawal.


• Deposit - $1,050. This is due March 15, under the same terms as the Acceptance Fee.


• University Technology Fee: not to exceed $100 when implemented.

The first semester’s tuition and fees, less the $2,000 previously paid, are due on receipt of NSU invoice. Tuition for each subsequent semester is due upon receipt of NSU invoice. Students will not be admitted until their financial obligations have been met. The financial ability of applicants to complete their training at the College is important because of the limited number of positions available in each class. Applicants should have specific plans for financing four years of professional education. This should include tuition, living expenses, books, equipment, and miscellaneous expenses.

It is required that each student carry adequate personal medical and hospital insurance. Students may avail themselves of the hospitalization insurance plan obtainable through the University.
