Nurse Anesthetist Programs
by Cost

Nurse Anesthetist Programs can range from $10,000 to $110,000. Why not go easy on your pocket book and find one in your price range?!

For CRNA schools that charge out of state tuition, the CRNA program will be listed twice; first for its in state tuition cost and then for its out of state tuition cost.

How CRNA Schools Cost is Calculated

Nurse anesthetist programs are listed by Total Cost rather than tuition cost. Total cost listed is a calculation of tuition + fees and expenses incurred over the entire duration of the program. It is based on information available on each school's website.

The calculation of fees and expenses: Often includes AANA membership fees, certification fees and clinical fees.

It always includes the cost of textbooks and supplies. When schools do not offer an estimate of this cost, I assume a cost of $2,000 for text books, as this is fairly average.

It never includes housing, travel or basic living expenses, as those vary a great deal from student to student and that data is not always available on program websites. It also does not include the cost of a computer/ laptop or PDA (which are often either required or recommended).

Though the calculation of nurse anesthetist programs' tuition and fees gives you a great idea of how much it will cost you to complete your degree, it does not necessarily include every expense you will incur while in one of these nurse anesthetist programs.
