FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

What does this all mean?

At EDvance College we know that higher education is a financial and time investment for our students yet the impact can be felt broadly across communities. Because of this, we are committed to delivering the highest quality education with high-touch support services to maximize the return on investment in an efficient, timely, and transparent manner.

Do I have to pay $25,900 to attend EDvance College?

No. The full cost of attendance is calculated by every institution of higher education to paint a realistic picture of how much money a student would need to cover all of their expenses while going to school. This number is an average and is used to calculate financial aid. EDvance College only bills students for whatever portion of tuition is not covered by financial aid or scholarships.

Does this mean I will have to pay $12,000 annually for tuition?

No. Most EDvance College students that qualify for financial aid will have a majority of their tuition covered. One of our priorities is to graduate students with as little to no debt in educational expenses. To this end, EDvance works closely with foundations and government agencies to offset the cost of tuition via financial aid support. Our Student Success Advocates can work with students to ensure they receive as much financial support as possible.

What is an enrollment fee?

EDvance College charges a $150 per semester enrollment fee that every student is responsible to pay out of pocket. As a college built specifically for today’s early childhood educators, we believe that every student deserves an accessible and efficient education.

FINANCIAL SUPPORT

Creating a realistic option

As a new institution of higher education, EDvance College is in the process of applying for Title IV funding. At this time we are unable to disburse federal financial aid funds and instead are working with generous partners to help offset tuition costs for students.
