Program Cost

The PaCE certificate fee is $1,250 and is payable at the time of registration for TMP X111.

Note: Financial aid through the university will not cover this cost, as this course is not charged through BARC. However, our team will be periodically updating this page when scholarships open for applications. Please keep an eye out or bookmark this page if needed!

Scholarships are considered a financial resource for financial aid purposes. The total amount of financial aid that you may receive is determined by the Office of Financial Aid and Scholarships (OFAS) and is based on federal and state policy. If OFAS finds that you have received the full amount of aid for which you are eligible, any scholarship awarded may lead to a reduction in certain types of aid. If you are unsure about whether you have received the full amount of aid for which you are eligible, or to inquire about how receiving a Technology Management scholarship award may impact your existing financial aid, please contact the Office of Financial Aid and scholarships by joining the line to receive a call back at the link here.
