Arizona College of Nursing-Cleveland

What is the cost of studying for a year at Arizona College of Nursing-Cleveland?

For 2024-25, reported full-time undergraduate tuition at Arizona College of Nursing-Cleveland was $22,480, with $1,280 in required fees, for $23,760 in published tuition and required fees for an academic year. The reported in-state and out-of-state amounts were the same. Part-time tuition was reported at $843 per credit hour.

Those published charges are not a complete living budget. Students may also need to pay for books and supplies, clinical-related requirements, transportation, food, and off-campus housing. Because the college does not provide undergraduate housing, a room-and-board estimate should not be mistaken for a campus housing bill. Clinical travel can be especially important to budget for if placements are away from Beachwood.

Financial aid changes what an individual student pays, but grants and loans have different long-term effects. In 2024-25 reporting, 100% of students in the measured aid group received financial aid, while 89% had student loans. The reported average grant award from federal, state, local, institutional, or other sources was $4,852. For the reported family-income group of $48,001-$75,000, average net price was $39,762; net price is an average after grant aid and can include living expenses, so it should not be compared directly with tuition alone.

Eligible applicants can complete the FAFSA to be considered for federal aid and ask the financial-aid office about applicable grants, scholarships, state assistance, and federal loans. The most useful personal comparison is a written aid offer and cost-of-attendance estimate for the applicant's actual entry term and expected course load, with borrowed money clearly separated from grants.

What are the work-study opportunities at Arizona College of Nursing-Cleveland?

Students considering paid work alongside the Cleveland BSN should distinguish an ordinary part-time job from Federal Work-Study. Federal Work-Study, when available to an eligible student, is a need-based aid program tied to qualifying employment; an aid award does not itself assign a job or pay wages before work is performed.

Applicants should ask the financial-aid office whether Federal Work-Study positions are offered to Cleveland students, how positions are posted, and whether any approved off-campus jobs are available. They should also compare proposed work hours with the expected class, lab, and clinical schedule. Clinical training is an academic requirement, not automatically paid employment, and career preparation is not the same as a job-placement guarantee.
