Utica College freezes tuition for 2020-21 academic year

UTICA, N.Y. — Utica College will freeze its tuition for the 2020-2021 academic year, Laura Casamento, school president, announced Friday.

This applies to on-campus undergraduate students, as well as graduate, online, and accelerated bachelor’s degree in nursing students, the college said in a news release. Students will pay the same rate as the previous academic year.

Undergraduate on-campus tuition is $21,560 per year, but just over 95 percent of those students receive some form of financial aid, Christine Leogrande, director of media relations at Utica College, tells CNYBJ in an email.

“We know that many of our students and families face a great deal of financial uncertainty because of the COVID-19 pandemic,” Jeffery Gates, senior VP of student life and enrollment management, said. “We want to ensure that they are able to come to Utica College…”

Tuition rates will remain steady at the college’s nursing campus in Salina as well as those located in Miramar and St. Petersburg, Florida. This specialized program is for students who have already earned a bachelor’s degree, but will pursue an accelerated hybrid program of online and clinical study in nursing in just 16 months.

Utica College has a full-time enrollment of nearly 3,900 students, according to the 2020 Book of Lists, recently published by the Central New York Business Journal.
