I was just told by an enrollment counselor that effective July 1, the enrollment fee for excelsior will increase $70! Has anyone else heard about this? I guess I will submit my enrollment application now instead of waiting until September!

If they would hurry up with my eval I could enroll.....hoping for some results tomorrow. Plus I have to enroll in order to register for the next nursing exam.......patience is not one of my better qualities.

EC's fees always increase in July. I don't think they've increased their enrollment fee in years, so I'm not surprised.

I agree!

EC fees increase every year in July. This is something you learn to work around and a good reason not to procrastinate.

Yes, they will increase, as well as, the exam fees(up to 275 or so)....Keep in mind you can finance the enrollment fee over the coorifice of 6 months I believe! Happy studies to all!

I hope the graduation fee doesn't go up too. I guess I better pay for Micro before it's more expensive.

The grad fee has been the same since I graduated, I think ... although so has the enrollment fee! LOL.

Years and years ago, the fees did not increase on a regular basis. The exams were $60 or $65 apiece for many years. But that was back when there was a different attitude at EC, Regents then.

I haven't enrolled yet either. Still waiting for my transcript eval.

Should I go ahead and enroll now before my eval is back? Does that make any difference really?
