MSNM Tuition and Fees

Current tuition for the MSNM Program is $16,000 plus $1,750 for all textbooks and reading materials for the academic program. There is an additional charge to cover graduation related expenses. The non-refundable $50 application fee will be waived if you attend an Open House prior to the application process.

Learning Materials

Required textbooks are conveniently delivered to students in their assigned classrooms. The cost of all required reading materials is covered by the student’s book fee.

Student Loans

Students may qualify for loans through the Federal Family Education Loan Program (FFELP). To qualify a student must submit a Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) form that is used to determine eligibility for either Subsidized or Unsubsidized loans. (NOTE: If you have a defaulted student loan, or if you had a defaulted loan put into a bankruptcy, you may still become eligible for a student loan.

Subsidized Stafford Loan
  • No interest accrues on this part of the loan while you continue to attend classes and maintain satisfactory progress.
  • Repayment does not begin until six months after completing the program coursework.
  • No interest accrues during this six-month grace period.
Unsubsidized Stafford Loan
  • Family income has no bearing on eligibility.
  • Interest on this part of the loan accrues from the day the loan is received.
Deferments

All prior/current student loans may be put into a deferment status (no payments need to be made toward all prior student loans) while you are attending classes and maintain satisfactory progress.

For more information, to RSVP for an Open House Session, or to schedule a personal information session, contact Erin Slott at 312.322.1707 eslott@spertus.edu.
