I was recently accepted into the program and was wondering if anyone is a Track II student. I am Track II (3 yr program, had a previous bachelors degree) and I STILL haven't gotten a straight answer from ANYONE about how much tuition will be! Iv contacted about 5 or 6 people and was told all different things. I was told 12k per semester, and then I was told 12k/semester for the first year only, then 20k per semester for the remaining 2 years. Then I was told 20k per semester for all 3 years!! I spoke to everyone including the director of the program, graduate admissions, admin assistants, and the bursars office. What is it???!!!! Do you know???

100k is a LOT for a school no one has ever heard of...

Hello Everyone!
Just wanted to let everyone know that I did in fact find out how much the tuition rates are and I understand now. It was actually the Director of the OT program, Cathy Dow-Royer who cleared it all up for me. ALWAYS contact her or the assistant, Judy Anderson. The two of them together have always been more than willing to answer all of my many neurotic emails promptly and informatively. I should have known to try them first!!!!!

I want to add one more thing... AIC has actually recently had their program re accredited. I have also contacted several recent graduates who have told me that the program was excellent. Totally worth the money Iv heard.

If it's 100k in tuition, the total cost will be more like 130k-150k

There is no tuition info on the schools website? It is so crazy that you keep getting different numbers from people.

Why would it be that much? Fees and such?

Maybe they were thinking cost of living?

Its worth saying that even though tuition is 100k some programs nock on an "additional fees" allocation for health insurance, lab costs, technology, OTA membership fees, books background checks etc. In some schools it may just be part of the tuition but additional fees around15-20k is not unheard of.

Extra fees, books, room and board, cost of gas, miscellaneous things that pop up.

I recently got accepted to AIC (track I) and the school is giving me scholarship and grant money therefore my tuition is way below what is listed on the AIC website. I also found cheaper housing off campus.

Last year I rented a room in a house with another two college students from other schools and it was a great experience. This year I am splitting an apartment with a friend from school. Housing is cheap in the Springfield area/surrounding towns. There are other incoming students currently looking for roommates. If you have any other questions inbox me and I will send you more information.
