What is the cost of studying for a year at Taylor Business Institute?

For 2024-25, Taylor Business Institute reported the same published full-time undergraduate tuition for in-state and out-of-state students: $12,000, plus $300 in required fees. Tuition and required fees therefore total $12,300 before other expenses for a student charged those published amounts.

  • Full-time undergraduate tuition: $12,000 for either in-state or out-of-state students.
  • Required fees: $300.
  • Combined published tuition and required fees: $12,300.

That combined figure is not a complete cost of attendance. Students may also need to budget for books, transportation, housing, food, and personal expenses; their actual bill can depend on program and enrollment intensity. Ask for a current, itemized estimate covering the intended program and academic year rather than combining prices reported for different years.

Financial aid can change the amount a student pays, but an average award is not an individual quote. In 2024-25 reporting, 18% of students received financial aid, while 2% had student loans. The reported average grant amount was $9,362; it should not be subtracted from every applicant's tuition because eligibility and award amounts vary. U.S. federal aid generally requires eligible citizenship or noncitizen status, a particularly important distinction for international applicants.

What are the work-study opportunities at Taylor Business Institute?

Students interested in earning money while enrolled should distinguish Federal Work-Study from an ordinary part-time job. Work-Study is a need-based federal aid program: eligible students must be offered it through a participating institution, and an award does not itself guarantee a position.

Prospective students should ask the financial aid office whether their program and personal eligibility permit Work-Study, how jobs are posted, and whether hours can fit their class schedule. A regular job does not require a Work-Study award, while an internship may chiefly serve an academic or career purpose and may have different pay and credit rules. Students seeking career support should ask separately about resume review, employer contacts, and placement assistance rather than assuming a student job includes those services.
