The HCHS Difference
An integrative approach to nutrition & health sciences
For over 20 years, Huntington College of Health Sciences has offered more than a conventional undergraduate or graduate education. Our accredited, distance learning degree and diploma programs include the breadth of responsible complementary and alternative medicine viewpoints, providing our students with an integrative approach to nutrition and the health sciences.
HCHS tuition is lower
The cost of attending many private colleges and universities was over $20,000 per year (the national average in 2003 is $18,273 per academic year). Our tuition, on average, is less than half of that; and often even lower. The per course undergraduate rate for students formally enrolled in a diploma or degree program is $165 a credit hour. The per course undergraduate rate for non-matriculated students is $183.33 a credit hour. The per course graduate rate for students formally enrolled in a degree program is $285 a credit hour. The per course graduate rate for non-matriculated students is $350 a credit hour.
