UNDERGRADUATE AND GRADUATE CERTIFICATES

Certificate programs will be charged the same tuition rates for the applicable credential level as shown in the tables above (undergraduate certificates are charged at the bachelor’s rate and graduate certificates are charged at the master’s rate).  This is also how tuition will be charged for non-degree seeking students. Students in Professional Certificate programs are billed on a program-basis. Additional tuition is only waived for the first three repeated courses. Students will be responsible for paying a prorated tuition fee of $250.00 per course for repeats starting with the fourth overall repeat per program, whether the course is the same or different as the previous repeated course.

Prospectus and Proposal Courses: Students will be responsible for paying an adjusted tuition charge of $850 for a repeated doctoral prospectus course or doctoral proposal course a maximum of two times per eligible course.

Dissertation: Doctoral Study Continuation courses are $625, and enrollment is subject to approval by the College Dean or Designee. All courses not listed are charged their per credit hour charge for any repeats.

 

According to the Federal Student Aid Handbook, “A student must be enrolled at least half time to receive aid… To be enrolled half time, a student must be taking at least half of the course load of a full-time student…” (Page 19, Volume 1, Chapter 1). Trident defines full-time in the doctoral program as 4 semester credit hours per 12-week session. Accordingly, since the dissertation continuation courses are zero credit courses, they do not constitute as half-time enrollment and thus not eligible for financial aid. Similarly, dissertation continuation courses are not eligible for VA education benefits.
