Chattanooga College Medical Dental and & Technical Careers

What is the cost of studying for a year at Chattanooga College Medical Dental and & Technical Careers?

For 2024-25, reported full-time undergraduate tuition was $12,684 for both Tennessee residents and out-of-state students, with $25 in required fees. Those published charges are a starting point, not a complete estimate of what an individual will need to attend.

• Published tuition and required fees: $12,709 for the reported 2024-25 academic year.
• Average net price for students from families earning $0-$48,000: $33,090 in the reported data.
• Average net price for students from families earning $48,001-$75,000: $33,859 in the reported data.

Net price is an estimated attendance cost after grant and scholarship aid, not an extra charge to add to tuition. The figures can reflect living and other expenses beyond billed tuition, so they should not be combined into one annual total. Request a current, program-specific cost of attendance that separates tuition, required supplies, transportation, and living costs.

In the 2024-25 aid data, 89% of students received financial aid and 86% had student loans. The average reported grant award was $4,169. Eligible students should complete the Free Application for Federal Student Aid and ask the financial-aid office which federal grants, loans, Tennessee programs, institutional assistance, or military education benefits apply to their exact program. Loans must be repaid; an aid offer should be compared with the full cost through completion, not just the first payment period.

What are the work-study opportunities at Chattanooga College Medical Dental and & Technical Careers?

Students who want paid work while enrolled should confirm whether Chattanooga College offers Federal Work-Study positions for their program and aid year. Work-Study is need-based financial aid earned through an eligible job; it is not the same as an automatic discount on tuition.

Ask the financial-aid office about eligibility and available positions, and ask program staff how many hours of outside employment fit the class and practical-training schedule. A clinical placement, an internship, and an ordinary part-time job may serve different purposes and may not all be paid. For career support, students should also ask who helps with résumés, interviews, employer contacts, and the job search; such services are distinct from a verified job-placement outcome.
