Due to declining reimbursement for anesthesia services and a lack of Federal support for nurse anesthesia education, TMC School of Nurse Anesthesia will have to begin charging tuition. This tuition will be in addition to the fees you pay to UMKC.

UMKC textbooks and anesthesia textbooks are additional expenses, as are other miscellaneous fees and expenses.

Currently, the Chancellor's Scholarship award is available to our students, which provides in-state tuition rates to out-of-state students.
