鈥淲e haven鈥檛 increased the price of tuition since 2018. That鈥檚 big in an inflationary environment,鈥 says Cameron Mohler, director of pricing and promotions for 澳门天天彩开奖记录. 鈥淎nd the other thing we offer that鈥檚 distinct is, once a student starts, their tuition is locked in for their program. So, if for some unforeseen reason we need to raise tuition, our current students will not feel that increase. That鈥檚 true even if they take a break from school.鈥

Ways to save time and money
So, how much is tuition at 澳门天天彩开奖记录? You have to look at more than just the cost of tuition. You also have to consider the potential savings.
The Savings Explorer鈩 tool can help students discover how their work, life and school experiences might help them save money based on how other students saved. Additionally, federal student aid can help students cover tuition at 澳门天天彩开奖记录.
Here are a few of the ways students can pay for tuition at 澳门天天彩开奖记录 and potentially save time and money on their degree:
- Scholarships: Starting with their first course, every new, qualifying UOPX student will be awarded a scholarship, applied over a set number of courses.
- Transfer credits: As a transfer-friendly University, UOPX accepts eligible college credits from more than 5,000 accredited institutions. We can even request your transcripts at no cost to you (when possible).
- Prior Learning Assessment: Students with on-the-job training, workplace certifications, or relevant and eligible life experience can apply for college credit through our Prior Learning Assessment (PLA). For every three credits earned, undergrad students can graduate five weeks faster and save almost $1,200 in tuition.听
- Federal financial aid: For many students, reaching academic goals could require some level of federal assistance. In general, federal grants are need-based and loans are need-based and non-need-based.
Some employers offer employer tuition benefits, which help students save money while gaining skills that help directly in their job.
Associate degree students who transfer into UOPX can save $144 on every course with UOPX鈥檚 special tuition rate. And active-duty service members in the U.S. Armed Forces and their family members are eligible for a lower military tuition rate.听
鈥淲e try to make education as affordable as we can,鈥 Mohler says. 鈥淲e do our part so students can do what they came to do 鈥 pursue their educational goals.鈥

Evaluating the investment
Of course, a college degree never guarantees a job, a promotion or a salary increase. Any number of variables 鈥 including geography, job growth with a chosen industry, and an individual鈥檚 experience, initiative and previous job performance 鈥 help determine these outcomes.
That said, 澳门天天彩开奖记录 has aligned its degree programs to career-relevant skills. As students develop and master these skills, they can showcase them as they go. Specific skills are learned course by course and on display to employers or potential employers through the posting of digital badges on social and career profiles. This helps students get value from their degree before they even graduate.
In the end, however, college is a big investment. It鈥檚 important to count the cost and understand that there are no guarantees. It鈥檚 also critical to step into the financial commitment of college with eyes wide open 鈥 knowing your options for savings, payment and repayment.
鈥淚t helps when you are sure that you have chosen an institution with straightforward, transparent tuition and fees,鈥 Mohler says. 鈥淭his allows students to keep their primary focus on what they came to do 鈥 get an education.鈥
At the end of the day, that鈥檚 what tuition at 澳门天天彩开奖记录 offers: an education and peace of mind.听
