Chamberlain University-New Jersey

What is the cost of studying for a year at Chamberlain University-New Jersey?

For 2024-25, Chamberlain University-New Jersey reported $20,580 in full-time undergraduate tuition and $940 in required fees for both in-state and out-of-state students. Together, those reported charges total $21,520 before other educational and living expenses. The reported part-time tuition charge was $735 per credit hour.

That tuition-and-fees sum is not a full cost-of-attendance estimate. A student's budget may also need to cover books and supplies, transportation to campus and clinical sites, housing, food, and personal expenses. Nursing students should check the current program cost schedule for any course- or clinical-related charges and avoid treating a prior-year annual figure as a price guarantee.

Aid can change the amount a student pays, but grants, loans, and work earnings are not interchangeable. In 2024-25 reporting, 80% of students received student loans. The reported average grant award to undergraduate recipients was $4,518; an average does not establish what a new applicant will qualify for. Eligible students should complete the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) and have Chamberlain's financial aid office explain federal grants and loans, institutional assistance, any applicable New Jersey aid, and military education benefits. Comparing the resulting personal aid offer with a budget that includes clinical travel is more useful than comparing tuition alone.

What are the work-study opportunities at Chamberlain University-New Jersey?

Nursing students may seek part-time work alongside their studies, but Federal Work-Study should not be assumed to be part of a Chamberlain University-New Jersey aid offer. Federal Work-Study is a need-based student employment program: qualifying for it, receiving an award, and obtaining a suitable job are distinct steps.

Applicants who want campus employment should ask financial aid whether Federal Work-Study is available to them, how positions are advertised, and when hiring occurs. Ordinary part-time jobs are different from work-study, while required clinical learning is part of the academic program rather than a paid job unless an employer separately hires the student.

For career planning, students should ask what North Brunswick students can access for résumé review, interview preparation, job searches, employer contacts, and licensure-to-employment planning. These services, where available, should be evaluated separately from actual job-placement outcomes. Work schedules also need to be checked against the hours and locations of classes and clinical assignments.
