Arkansas Colleges of Health Education

What is the cost of studying for a year at Arkansas Colleges of Health Education?

ACHE's annual cost depends heavily on the program. For 2024-25, federal institutional reporting lists full-time graduate tuition of $8,240 for both in-state and out-of-state students, with $0 in reported required graduate fees. Those institution-level entries should not be treated as a complete price quote for a DO or therapy program; applicants need the current, program-specific tuition schedule.

• Reported 2024-25 full-time graduate tuition: $8,240 for in-state students and $8,240 for out-of-state students.
• Reported 2024-25 required graduate fees: $0 for both residency categories.

A usable budget also includes any program-specific charges, books or equipment, health and background-check requirements, housing, food, transportation, and clinical-placement travel. Ask for the official cost-of-attendance budget for the exact academic year and program. That budget is an estimate of expenses, while a student's eventual out-of-pocket cost depends on aid, borrowing, and personal circumstances. Graduate and professional students should check federal loan eligibility and limits, school-administered assistance, and any applicable military education benefits with financial aid staff.

What are the work-study opportunities at Arkansas Colleges of Health Education?

Students may be able to pursue paid work during their studies, but they should not assume that a Federal Work-Study award or campus job comes with admission. Federal Work-Study is need-based aid that requires eligibility and an available position; it is different from an ordinary part-time job.

Professional courses and clinical assignments can limit the hours a student can realistically work. Applicants who need employment income should ask the financial aid office whether their program participates in Federal Work-Study, how jobs are posted, and whether a proposed job is compatible with academic and clinical schedules. Research or teaching positions, when offered, can provide experience, but their duties and pay should be evaluated separately from required, potentially unpaid clinical training.
