Tuition
Base tuition for the Professional Certification Program is $7,990.00 $7,225.00 based on 560 hours of required curriculum as outlined in the course description. Students select electives of personal interest. Because these classes vary in the number of hours and cost, they are paid for separately. The cost of required elective hours depends upon course selection. Tuition ranges from $85.00 to $395.00 for each course.

Tuition Payment
TMTI offers the choice of two convenient monthly payment plans as detailed on the opposite page. There is no finance charge on timely payments, however, $10.00 late fee is applied to late payments. Each student is required to sign a Student Agreement prior to beginning class which specifies monthly payment dates.
Students are expected to pay promptly on the agreed dates without notification. Failure to do so may constitute grounds for dismissal. A processing fee of $35.00 is charged for each returned check. Students must be in good financial standing to continue successive units and receive a diploma.

Payment Options

Option #1 Base Tuition
With this plan, you pay only base tuition with the monthly payment. Elective courses, books, and table are paid for separately.  Students that may already own a table or wish to take approved electives outside the Institute should choose this option.
17 monthly payments of $470.00 $425.00

Option #2 All Inclusive
This all inclusive plan includes your selection of elective classes from those offered by the Institute, books, and a Custom Craftworks Athena Table with facerest.  Save as much as $250.00 over the cost of purchasing these items separately.  This is the best option for those students who wish to know and plan in advance, the cost of their new career.
