Meridian West Central College
seminare novus semita... soaring to new heights
The cost of attendance includes tuition and fees. We are not a lending institution, however, we work with the students for payment arrangements to assist them in achieving their educational goals. As a convenience, Meridian West Central College also accepts all major credit cards and checks as payment for tuition and educational related expenses.
The following is a list of program costs including both required and optional materials, books, and equipment. Costs are estimated. However, the Elsevier Simulation Fees will increase annually by 1.5%.
The program specific tuition and fees are listed under the detailed program descriptions. The total cost of all programs includes the registration fee, assessments, lab fees and tuition fees. See individual programs for costs. Registration fees, and simulation lab fees are payable in advance before the class begins. Arrangements are made for the balance of the cost of the program. The registration fee and simulation lab fees are non-refundable. All refunds will be calculated based on the published Cancellation and Refund Policy found in the online catalog and on the enrollment agreement. Stopping payment on a check or credit card does not constitute official withdrawal and will result in additional fees and collection costs.
