Please remember that over 90% of our students receive aid which makes your out of pocket expenses very affordable.
GUARANTEED TUITION OPTION (GTO)
Students may choose to participate in the Guaranteed Tuition Option (GTO) which locks in an hourly tuition rate for eight semesters. Students must be continually enrolled with full-time status to maintain the guarantee. Initially, students will pay a higher rate, but the tuition will stay the same for eight semesters. You may opt out of the GTO at any time and pay the current hourly tuition rate. However, once you opt out, you may not return to your initial guaranteed amount. The rate for the Fall 2014 semester is $791 per semester hour, you can select the GTO at time of registration.
FINANCIAL AID
ETBU awarded over $9 million in financial aid this year and over 90% of our students receive financial aid. This makes your out of pocket expense much lower than the above amount. ETBU strives to provide an affordable, quality education.
