Getting started is straightforward.

(If your records are unavailable due to circumstances beyond your control, the school can use the CELSA or TABE assessment instead.) You'll also complete a short Online Readiness Assessment (80% or higher) to make sure hybrid and online coursework is a good fit.

Here is what your program costs:

tuition of two (2) terms at $9,220.00, which totals $18,440.00
a one-time registration fee of $125.00 and a technology fee of $30.00 upon enrollment, which equals a Total Program Cost of $18,595.00

There are no finance charges and no interest. All course materials you'll need are provided by the school and included in tuition. You'll just supply your own basics — pens, paper, and your own headphones — which typically adds about $50–150 in out-of-pocket expenses.

Financial aid is available for those who qualify: students receiving assistance under Federal Title IV programs (Pell Grants, Direct Student Loans) are subject to Federal regulations, and the Financial Aid Office can walk you through your options.

The school also offers a College Completion Grant ($3,000 — $1,500 per semester — if you already hold a bachelor's or master's degree and stay in good academic standing) and a Need-Based Grant when funds are available. A Tuition Installment Plan is offered alongside your enrollment agreement.

Total Program Tuition of $18,440 (two (2) terms at $9,220)

Career Outcomes

The possibilities are wide open. You'll be prepared for a broad range of entry-level media roles — advertising, web design, graphic design, animation, television, radio, internet-based media, audio and video production, copywriting, social media strategy, and podcasting — plus freelance and start-your-own-business paths. As a graduate, you'll have access to the school's full-time Career Services Department, which continually receives job inquiries from employers looking to hire graduates. While the school works hard to help you launch your career, job placement is not guaranteed.

You'll also get one-on-one career services support from enrollment through graduation. Want to see it for yourself? Book a campus tour to meet students and instructors.
