Tuition is based on 36 core credit hours plus the opportunity to take an additional 12 hours of OPTIONS credits.  If a student takes all 48 hours, the cost per credit is $432.75 per credit hour which includes all fees. This is the lowest cost program of its kind in Western New York. When comparing costs of similar programs, be sure to compare total costs, not simply published cost per credit hour. P.A.C.E. continues to be the lowest cost adult degree completion program in Western New York.  Our combination of low cost and nationally recognized quality provides the best education option for qualified adult students.

To reduce students’ expenses, P.A.C.E. has purchased the texts and materials needed for each course. Tuition covers textbook use, supplemental readings, software and the computer lab. Student syllabi and course materials are now on the internet for downloading directly to personal computers.  Students may purchase new textbooks for their personal libraries.  Additional course materials are conveniently available on class nights. P.A.C.E. students do not have to arrange their schedules around bookstore hours.

"OPTIONS" Courses are similar to P.A.C.E. courses in that they consist of five, four-hour classes. They are offered on Saturday mornings so they will be accessible to all students regardless of the night they attend regular class. They are available to all P.A.C.E. students and may be used to complete degree requirements.

Financial Aid
Students in P.A.C.E. are considered full-time and may therefore be eligible for New York State TAP, Federal PELL grants and Federal Stafford Loans. Veterans may contact the financial aid office to see if they are eligible for veterans’ benefits.  See a number of links to financial aid sites by clicking HERE.

Payment Plans
P.A.C.E. students have many options for payment including check, MasterCard/VISA, employer sponsored tuition assistance, New York State TAP, Federal PELL grants, Federal Stafford Loans, VA grants, etc.

Students are billed at the beginning of each term. Payment deferment can be arranged for pending employer tuition reimbursement.  Students will receive periodic statements showing account activity for the preceding period and their current balance. The statement also includes any charges for additional courses taken, experiential learning credits, etc.
