Tuition/Fees, Refund Policy and Program Expenses
Unless otherwise noted, all fees are due at the beginning of each academic year. There is no difference in tuition for West Virginia residents or out-of-state residents. All fees are subject to change without notice.
Marshall University grants a tuition waiver for all SMMC tuition expenses. This means students pay SMMC directly. Students who receive financial aid from Marshall may receive fall aid by August, but must contact the Financial Aid office early in order to do so. Students may be granted a short-term extension in fee payment under extenuating circumstances.

SMMC SOMI provides information on tuition or fees to Marshall University. SMMC SOMI has no influence regarding the award or denial of federal or state financial aid. SMMC- SOMI will notify MU and the Financial Aid Office if any student voluntarily withdraws or is dismissed from the program. St. Mary's Medical Center School of Medical Imaging is approved for VA funding.
