Tuition and fees
How much does the program cost?
Tuition and fees
Tuition and fee amounts are pending Arizona Board of Regents (ABOR) approval. Please note: Tuition and fees, as well as the OTD Program fee, are subject to change at the discretion of ABOR or the Arizona legislature annually.
Tuition and fees are calculated directly from NAU’s Student and Departmental Account Services website at /sdas/tuition-fees/.
Financial aid
Completing the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) before being admitted into a graduate program is a good idea. Typically, applications begin in October for the following fall. Applying early enables applicants to be considered for sources with early deadlines. Applicants have the ability to decline or accept funding prior to the start of aid.

WICHE PSEP
The NAU Occupational Therapy program is proud to be recognized as a school authorized to accept students qualifying for the WICHE PSEP. The Western Interstate Commission for Higher Education Professional Student Exchange Program (WICHE PSEP) enables students from Alaska, Hawaii, Montana, Wyoming, and the territory of CNMI to apply for assistance from their home state in the pursuit of a graduate program in the field of occupational therapy. Because the deadline for application is October prior to admission, persons interested in a graduate program are encouraged to apply prior to interviews for the NAU OTD program.
