Tuition & Aid Questions
Yes. HPI holds Title IV eligibility from the U.S. Department of Education, which means qualifying students can use Federal Pell Grant funds toward HPI tuition. The Pell Grant is based on financial need as determined by your FAFSA. Students who qualify for the maximum award ($7,395/year) may find that Pell alone covers the majority of their first semester tuition.
A tuition deposit is required to secure your enrollment seat. The deposit amount varies and is applied toward your first semester tuition balance. For students receiving financial aid, the deposit may be waived or reduced pending your award letter. Contact the Financial Aid office to discuss your specific situation - we do not want cost to be a barrier to starting your application.
HPI's Title IV eligibility covers grant programs like the Pell Grant but does not currently include federal student loan participation. Students seeking loan-based funding for HPI programs should explore private student loan options through lenders such as Sallie Mae, Ascent, or their personal bank. The Financial Aid office can provide guidance, though private loans must be arranged directly by the student.
If the Ohio Board of Nursing does not grant approval for HPI's PN program before your conditional enrollment cohort start date, HPI will issue a full refund of your tuition deposit within 14 days of notifying you of the non-approval. No partial withholdings or processing fees will be deducted. This refund protection is written into every PN enrollment agreement.
HPI's tuition refund policy is based on the number of clock hours completed at the time of withdrawal relative to the total scheduled clock hours for the payment period. Refund percentages are: 100% before program start; 90% within the first 10% of the payment period; 75% within 10–25%; 50% within 25–50%; and 0% after 50% completion. The complete policy is published in the HPI School Catalog and your enrollment agreement. Federal Title IV return-of-funds rules (R2T4) apply to Pell Grant recipients who withdraw.
HPI does not currently operate an institutional scholarship program. HPI focuses its resources on maintaining low tuition rates and providing extensive assistance in accessing external grant and scholarship programs (Pell, MyCAA, NEALP, employer tuition assistance). A scholarship program is under development for future cohorts - contact the Financial Aid office for the most current information.
