Phoenix Institute of Herbal Medicine & Acupuncture

What is the cost of studying for a year at Phoenix Institute of Herbal Medicine & Acupuncture?

For 2024-25, the reported full-time graduate tuition was the same for in-state and out-of-state students. Published tuition and required fees are only part of the amount a student may need to budget.

• Full-time graduate tuition: $19,244 for 2024-25, for either residency category.
• Reported required graduate fees: $600 for 2024-25, for either residency category.
• Tuition plus those reported required fees: $19,844 for 2024-25.
• Reported part-time graduate tuition: $330 per credit hour for 2024-25, for either residency category.

The part-time per-credit price should not be added to the full-time annual tuition figure; it describes a different enrollment basis. Students should request a current, degree-specific cost-of-attendance estimate covering books, supplies, clinical materials, transportation, living expenses, and any charges associated with their course load. Financial aid may change what a student pays out of pocket, but loans still have to be repaid.

What are the work-study opportunities at Phoenix Institute of Herbal Medicine & Acupuncture?

Students seeking paid work while attending PIHMA should distinguish an ordinary part-time job from Federal Work-Study, which is a need-based financial aid program with its own eligibility and funding rules. An award of Work-Study funds would not itself place a student in a job.

Ask PIHMA's financial aid office whether Work-Study is offered for the intended degree and enrollment status, how positions are posted, and whether clinical assignments may be paid. A required clinical placement is primarily an academic obligation; it should not be budgeted as employment unless compensation is explicitly confirmed.
