Tuition Rates and Fees 
2026-2027 Academic Year

View tuition rates and school fees for our doctoral and graduate programs. The College normally finalizes the upcoming academic year's tuition rates around the middle of April each year.

PCOM is committed to helping students maximize funding sources and minimize student debt. Visit our Office of Financial Aid section to learn about cost of attendance, types of aid available and how to apply for financial aid.

All courses taken will be assessed at the tuition rate of the degree program of the course. If a student is enrolled at PCOM in multiple degree programs, tuition for the course(s) will be charged at the rate of the program with which the course(s) is affiliated.

Any repeated course(s) will incur a full tuition charge.

Comprehensive School Fee

The comprehensive school fee at PCOM is applicable to all students and is used to support essential student services outside of instructional time. This fee funds a broad spectrum of services, including library resources, student council funding, counseling and wellness services, recreational and fitness programs, and learning support. Since all students have access to these services, the fee is non-refundable and cannot be waived. The comprehensive school fee is $800 annually. Note: Beginning in the 2025-2026 academic year, the comprehensive fee will be charged in the fall and spring terms and be $400 each term.
