Tuition Waiver Policy

The ATU tuition waiver policy allows any student who enrolls with a 2.25 out of 4.0 GPA to pay in-state tuition rates instead. GPA is determined by the International Admissions office during the application process. In-state tuition is approximately half the amount of out-of-state tuition. To qualify for the waiver in future semesters, the student must maintain the 2.25 GPA throughout the college coursework. Use the Tuition Calculator and select "In-State" as the Residency for an estimate on costs per semester. (Please remember the additional notes on fees mentioned above when estimating your costs.)
