Institute of Taoist Education and Acupuncture

What is the cost of studying for a year at Institute of Taoist Education and Acupuncture?

For the 2024-25 reporting year, ITEA's listed full-time graduate tuition was $18,068, with $200 in required fees, for $18,268 in tuition and required fees. The listed amounts were the same for in-state and out-of-state graduate students. This is a published academic-year charge, not an estimate of everything a student will spend.

A personal budget must also allow for books and supplies, transportation, living expenses, and any program-specific purchases or clinical expenses identified in the current catalog. Tuition may change from one reporting year to the next, and a student's schedule can change the amount billed. Applicants should request the current tuition schedule and a degree-long estimate, then compare any aid offer with both billed charges and living costs. A reported average graduate-level military education benefit of $9,034 is an average, not an individual award or a reduction every student receives.

What are the work-study opportunities at Institute of Taoist Education and Acupuncture?

Students should distinguish ordinary part-time work from Federal Work-Study. Work-Study, when offered to an eligible student, is a financial-aid-supported job program with its own eligibility and hiring rules; it is not a tuition discount or a guaranteed position.

Before relying on employment to finance the program, applicants should ask ITEA's financial aid office whether their degree and enrollment qualify for Federal Work-Study, how positions are advertised, and whether jobs can be combined with clinical training. They should also check the program's weekly classroom and clinic commitments. A paid job, an educational clinical placement, and professional work after graduation serve different purposes and may have different scheduling and credential requirements.
