Lab Fee

A fee to cover the expenses for specific science courses (e.g., anatomy, microbiology), Objective Structured Clinical Examinations (OSCEs), and evaluative testing will be charged.

Equipment


Students in the didactic phase will be required to obtain certain medical equipment. A list of required equipment is included with pre-matriculation materials. During the first week of class, the program will bring vendors to the school to demonstrate various brands of equipment. The vendors will give the students a group discount, but students are not obligated to purchase the equipment from these vendors. Estimated cost to the student is $550 - $775. Price is dependent on type, brand and quality of equipment. The University assumes no financial responsibility for this equipment.

Books

Students in the didactic phase can plan on spending approximately $1,200 to $1,500 on required textbooks. Course syllabi and the program book list also include recommended books which students are not required to purchase, but may wish to have as important reference materials.

Other Expenses

Students are responsible for expenses involved with travel, parking, living expenses and meals at clinical sites.

Financial Aid

Students enrolled in the MSPA Program at the University of New England may seek financial assistance through a variety of sources such as Federal Subsidized and Unsubsidized Stafford Loans, as well as outside funding through alternative loan programs.
