Financial Assistance for Students

You Can Afford To Attend College Through A Variety Of Tuition Plans. Through a variety of financial assistance programs, everyone can afford to enroll in college. IU offers private student financial aid: student loans, scholarships, and grants.

Financial Aid for Education

Advance Payment: You can pay your tuition for the entire program in full (by check, credit card, or debit card) and receive a 10% discount.  This 10% discount can be combined with other scholarships or grants.

Tuition Reimbursement: Many employers reimburse tuition for employees who advance their knowledge and skills.  Typically an employee is reimbursed for tuition and/or fees that the employee has paid to a qualified institution, provided that the employee earns a "C" or better in the course. Ask your employer for their specific policy and procedures.

Veterans Benefits: Our degree programs are approved for Veterans Benefits. In coordination with the Department of Veterans Affairs, IU will certify your enrollment.

DANTES: We are proud to be affiliated with DANTES, which qualifies active duty military personnel for tuition assistance. Contact your hospital career counselor, base education officer, or DANTES at (904) 452-1084.

Sallie Mae: Sallie Mae provides generous student loans to students of accredited institutions. Students may elect to pay interest only while in school. Independence University will help you with applications and the processing of the paperwork.

In-House Financing: Edu-Plan loans are available to ALL students, regardless of your credit history.

By-Course Payment: IU now offers a course-by-course payment option.  Students must pay for each course in advance.

Grants and Scholarships: Many institutions such as hospitals/ employers; alumni organizations, healthcare industries, medical equipment vendors, service providers, and pharmaceutical companies, offer scholarships and grants for various categories of students.

Other conditions or situations will apply, such as whether the applicant is supporting a large family, is a single parent, or has a recognized physical disability.
