How much are you paying for nursing school (this semester)?

I just looked at my future dues for this coming Autumn Semester and have about 7000 dollars (not including books) to pay for. No scholarship money, and what it worse is that I am only taking thirteen credit hours.

I was wondering, how much are you going to have to pay for? How much do you average? And how many credit hours are you taking?

I am anticipating paying $650 in tuition and fees for 10 credits at my school a community college. This is my last semester of my ADN. Bought my leadership/management book used on amazon for 18. Have 2 out of town clinical rotations this semester that I'll need to split a hotel room with classmates and purchase meals.[/quote']

Where is this? That's really cheap. $65 per credit?

Good day:

RE: $229.00 per credit hour.

That's alot.

Compared to?

Class size is typically 24 students for onsite classes; some classes are 48 students, but I've not been in any of those (and since they typically offer several of the same subject for different days of the week, you can typically also pick if you want to be in a 24 student class or a 48 student class).

For the ones paying $100 per credit hour or less, how many students are in a class room?

Thank you.

$1200 per semester for 12 credits. Since I've started the program it's only been $800 each semester. I'm in an ADN program at the cities college.

$1238 for 9 credits at a local state college. Last semester was about $1700 for 12. Thank goodness that was the only 12credit hour semester of the program.

At my community college the nursing program is tuition free, which is amazing. I have to take a patient skills class my first semester and it is general entry, so I have to pay tuition for that. When I saw my bill for the Fall 2013 semester it was $150! We do have to pay for books and a supply package, but it averages out to $210 a semester for five semesters.

I'm in an ADN program at a community college and it's 46$/unit. This semester we have 8 units so I'm paying 468$. My husband was complaining over yhe the fees but he should consider himself lucky for paying so little

46$/unit. 22-25 students

I believe it's $46/credit hour at a California Community College. I'm taking 12.5 units this semester. I will graduate with no debt, and for that I am very thankful.

My classes usually have 20 to 30 students

I go to a top 50 university in the country, it's a state school and I get in-state tuition there. I also got a scholarship and a grant, so I pay $3500 per semester on tuition/fees (on top of that I pay for books and health insurance, so it gets up for maybe $4600). Thankfully my parents have made sure I don't have to take out loans so far. One more year to go after this one- we'll see if they can help me through the last year! :)

I'm definitely covering grad school myself though. We'll see how that goes too... I might work for a year or two just so I don't have to take out any loans. Then again, I don't want to be debt-averse just for the sake of being debt-averse, so I might just work for a year and end up taking out 20k in loans for grad school, which I feel is manageable on an NP's salary.
