    MERP at AUC

    Does anyone know about how much MERP at AUC will cost? Housing/tuition/books/etc. Also, can you receive financial aid/federal aid (if you qualify, of course) to help pay for the cost?

    And anyone know as to how intense the 15 week course is?

    Thanks for your responses in advance.

    $16,575 flat tuition. Add another 1K for books and several more for housing. Probably at least $25-30K.

    There are many students selling there books on valuemd, and at the first semester sale during first few days at school. So 1k is not realistic unless you buy every single book new. Also all the books are in the library and you can sign them out. They also give you printed copies of all the lectures for a small fee and most profs will use the notes only for tests... I am not saying what is best, but I think I spent less than 100 for books semester one. Housing is easy to find at around 900-1100 for a descent apartment close to school. There is a bunch of grocery stores near the school and a costco type store a little drive away with prices comparable to US stores. If you know how to live on a budget, then you can live for really cheap at AUC. Its also really easy to have supplements shipped to the post office from online vendors if you are into health food and I pay usually about 20-50 for shipping depending on the size of the boxes. I had a 10 foot stand up paddle board shipped from california to Sxm for less than 100 bucks. If you find someone you can live with, share an apartment and possibly a car or get a bike and really save money... Also its good to note that there is an excellent pizza place outside front gate to the school with really good pizza and a cafe too. Sorry for the ramble...

    I think the OP was asking about the cost of the AUC/Ross MERP Program
