What is the cost of studying for a year at PCI College?

The most useful cost figure for a prospective PCI College student is a current, itemized estimate for the specific program and expected period of attendance. Tuition alone may exclude registration charges, books, equipment, uniforms, examinations, transportation, and expenses associated with clinical training.

Reported 2024-25 average net prices - estimated costs after grant or scholarship aid - for students in the lowest two income bands were $26,457 for family income up to $48,000 and $29,007 for income from $48,001 to $75,000. These are group averages, not quoted tuition or a personal aid offer. In the same reporting period, 100% of students received financial aid and 79% had student loans. The latter figure makes it especially important to separate grants, which generally do not require repayment, from borrowed funds. Ask for a program-level cost of attendance, an individualized aid offer, and the enrollment agreement's refund schedule before signing.

What are the work-study opportunities at PCI College?

Students considering employment while attending PCI College should first compare their proposed work hours with the program's class, laboratory, and clinical schedule. An outside part-time job, an internship, and Federal Work-Study are different arrangements and should not be treated as interchangeable sources of income.

Federal Work-Study, when offered to an eligible student, generally requires a qualifying financial-aid application and an available job; it is earned through work rather than paid automatically with a grant. Ask the financial aid office whether a Work-Study award and suitable positions are available for the intended program. Separately, ask program staff what assistance they provide with résumés, employer contacts, and job searches, without treating those services as a job-placement promise.
