We’ll help you find a way
to pay for the cost of tuition
Our goal is to make education affordable and manageable. We work with students during the recruitment process to help plan and find ways to pay for their degree.
Hybrid Learning is offered under a non-standard academic calendar, comprised of eight 5-week terms. Each term is considered a stand-alone period of attendance and financial aid is awarded by term. A student who takes one 3-credit course is considered full-time for that term. A student may attend or stop out any term, which allows for a flexible educational experience.
Use our net price calculator to estimate both the cost of attending Unity Environmental University and the financial aid for which you might qualify.
