Cost of attendance (COA) is the estimated amount it will cost to attend doctoral, graduate and certificate programs at PCOM, PCOM Georgia and PCOM South Georgia.
Tuition CalculatorCOA figures include tuition and fees, books and supplies, loan fees and reasonable costs for living expenses (housing, food, transportation, health insurance and personal expenses). The COA figures listed below are estimated and subject to change at any time without notice.
Enrolled students can view their current COA figures by logging into Financial Aid Self-Service within myPCOM and visiting the "cost of attendance" section. If a student has an expense greater than any COA line item, they may appeal via a "Professional Judgment - Special Circumstance Review" by contacting the Office of Financial Aid.
When a student's costs exceed what is listed in the Cost of Attendance, students may pursue what in financial aid is called a Professional Judgment (PJ). When you reach out to our staff via online form or other communication, we will consider your circumstances and will be able to assess any changes to the component in question.

Students in the Master of Science in Biomedical Sciences program complete foundational coursework in the first year and then progress to one of several second-year degree concentrations. Students who successfully complete the foundational (first year) curriculum and elect not to continue in a second year concentration may receive a certificate of graduate study (CGS) as a terminal award. At PCOM South Georgia, students who meet specified academic success criteria will have the opportunity to complete an accelerated master's program (MS in Biomedical Sciences - Preclinical Sciences) during the summer term. Students who do not meet the minimum requirements for the accelerated master’s program will have the option to receive a CGS or pursue a second-year concentration as part of the MS in Biomedical Sciences program.

The comprehensive school fee at PCOM is applicable to all students and is used to support essential student services outside of instructional time. This fee funds a broad spectrum of services, including library resources, student council funding, counseling and wellness services, recreational and fitness programs, and learning support. Since all students have access to these services, the fee is non-refundable and cannot be waived.
Students are charged tuition and comprehensive school fees each term. If students are paying any portion of their tuition out-of-pocket, they must make payment directly to the PCOM Bursar Office by each term's tuition due dates.
When student loan and scholarship payments disburse to PCOM, they first pay toward a student's tuition and fee charges. Students then receive any remaining funds as “refunds” to help them meet their personal living expenses. Read more about disbursements and refunds.
Tuition rates generally increase by about three percent each year.
