Saint Elizabeth College of Nursing

What is the cost of studying for a year at Saint Elizabeth College of Nursing?

For 2025-26, reported full-time undergraduate tuition and required fees total $20,180 for New York residents and $19,300 for out-of-state students. These are published charges before any individual financial aid is applied.

• New York resident: $18,980 in tuition plus $1,200 in required fees.
• Out-of-state student: $28,800 in tuition plus $1,200 in required fees.
• Reported part-time tuition: $590 per credit for New York residents or $1,500 per credit for out-of-state students.
• Reported books and supplies estimate: $2,000.

Students also need a budget for housing, food, transportation, and personal expenses. Because the college does not operate undergraduate housing, a room-and-board estimate should not be read as a residence-hall charge or added to tuition as though it were a required college bill. Clinical travel and required program materials can make an individual nursing student's budget different from a general undergraduate estimate.

Financial aid changes the amount a student may ultimately pay. In 2024-25 reporting, the average undergraduate grant award across federal, state, local, institutional, or other sources was $4,764; an average is not an award offer for a new applicant. Loans require repayment and should be considered separately from grants. To compare schools fairly, use each institution's cost-of-attendance estimate and an individual aid offer for the same academic year.

What are the work-study opportunities at Saint Elizabeth College of Nursing?

Students considering work while enrolled should distinguish three things: Federal Work-Study, an ordinary paid job, and nursing clinical education. Clinical assignments are academic requirements, not automatically paid employment.

Federal Work-Study, when included in an eligible student's financial-aid offer, generally provides an opportunity to earn wages through an approved job; it is not a grant paid in full at the beginning of a term or a guarantee of a position. Eligibility is assessed through the financial-aid process. Students seeking employment should ask the financial-aid office how work-study positions are assigned and whether other student jobs are advertised separately.

Institutional career-services reporting identifies individual and group career counseling, résumé assistance, interview workshops, and on-campus employer recruitment for undergraduates. Those services can support a job search, but they should not be interpreted as a guarantee of an interview, placement, or particular salary. Nursing students should also consider whether paid work hours can fit around changing clinical schedules.
