Tuition – Updated for 2019-20
The tuition rate for Year I which includes Foundation Studies [27 Saturdays + a summer week] is $5,500. The rate for Year II with either a Teacher Ed. or E.C. concentration [also 27 Saturdays + a summer week] is $6,500. Documented Foundations Studies and Teacher Education credits from other AWSNA recognized programs are accepted.
A $100.00 enrollment deposit towards tuition is required of all accepted students at the time of their acceptance to secure a place in the incoming class.
We strive to keep tuition as low as possible so that our programs may be accessible to a wide range of interested students. Inquire about AWSNA sponsored scholarships. Modest tuition reductions are subject to availability.
Our tuition can be paid in three different ways: lump sum, in trimesters, or on a monthly basis spread out over ten months. The first tuition payment is due in October. Students who fall behind in their payments may be asked to discontinue the program unless a firm payment plan is established that will have the tuition paid in full by the end of the school year.
