Cost of Attendance (COA)

PNWU, in accordance with federal regulations, establishes your student budget based on expected tuition and other campus fees, average housing costs, average book and supply expenses, and average transportation costs for commuting students within Yakima and rotation site. Adjustments may be made by first reading the budget revision guidelines and then submitting a budget revision request form to finaid@pnwu.edu.

For DO-OMS3 and DO-OMS4 a special budget is set for the Alaska rotation site upon request at finaid@pnwu.edu.

The estimated cost of attendance is based on estimated tuition and fees, a previous student survey, and consumer price index. Students are encouraged to reduce personal debts prior to beginning medical school. Keep in mind that according to federal regulations, the budget is constructed for students only, not a student’s family.
