Costs By College Types

(Costs are for Full-Time Students: 12+ Credits per Semester)


College costs vary widely, and change regularly based on numerous factors. Here's what you should know:

What's included in COA (Cost of Attendance):
    Generally, tuition, mandatory fees, books, supplies, and housing
    All of these items vary based on the college, the number of credits
    you take, programs and courses, and what type of housing (if any)
    you live in.

NHF provides financial assistance for public or private non-profit schools. Remote only learning and for-profit institutions are not eligible. 

To get an idea of your cost to attend college, many school web sites have a "net cost" calculator, where you can input some quick numbers and get a rough estimate of costs.

We encourage you to meet early in high school with the scholarship director of our program as well as your school guidance counselor. Both have the experience to help you plan ahead, helping to ensure your college choices match your academic, career, and financial situation.
