Nursing Student Handbook 2025-2026

Nova Southeastern University Student Handbook 27 UNIVERSITY FEES NSU offers to all students—on campus, online, clinical, or hybrid—the same quality education and many opportunities for student benefits depending on the educational modality selected. Therefore, the university sets the overall student fees on an aggregate, student-centric basis for the entire student body. The overall costs exceed the amount collected from student fees charged to all students. These student fees are blended together with high-tech systems, student activities, and many other essential student services that make a complete, integrated university. This mission transcends the development and ultimate determination of the amount of student fees for all students, irrespective of their choice of learning modality. NSU fees are annually approved by the Board of Trustees—in the spring—for the upcoming academic year. Rates are subject to change without notice. The below fees are assessed for all NSU students. Additional fees, such as acceptance, access, and lab fees, may be assessed by the student’s college and/or program.

Students who experience certain circumstances that prevent them from maintaining an active status through continuous enrollment must consult with their academic advisor, program office, or the Office of the Dean of Students representative to determine whether their circumstances warrant an LOA request and to discuss the impacts of an approved LOA on their degree/program completion, academic standing, course grades, and conditions for return.
