California Health Sciences University

What is the cost of studying for a year at California Health Sciences University?

CHSU's published cost needs to be checked by degree and academic year. The IPEDS 2024-25 figure for full-time graduate tuition is $31,000, with $580 in required fees, for both in-state and out-of-state students. That graduate-category figure should not be assumed to represent the current annual price of the DO program.

• 2024-25 reported full-time graduate tuition: $31,000.
• 2024-25 reported full-time graduate required fees: $580.

For a decision about osteopathic medical school, request the current DO tuition and fee schedule and the program's full cost-of-attendance budget. A budget may include books, equipment, health insurance, housing, food, transportation and clinical-rotation travel in addition to billed charges. Published costs are not the same as an individual student's final expense: aid can reduce what must be paid from personal funds, while loans generally must be repaid with interest. CHSU's financial aid office can explain the aid application process, available scholarships and the borrowing options applicable to an applicant's circumstances.

What are the work-study opportunities at California Health Sciences University?

Professional medical study leaves limited time for paid work, and applicants should not build an affordability plan around obtaining a campus job. Federal Work-Study, when offered to an eligible student, is a financial-aid-funded employment opportunity - not a grant paid automatically and not a substitute for the required curriculum.

Students considering employment should ask CHSU's financial aid office whether their program and award package permit Federal Work-Study, and ask the college about any available research or other paid student positions. Ordinary part-time employment is separate from Work-Study. Clinical rotations, meanwhile, are educational requirements rather than jobs that can be assumed to provide wages.
