Tuition Cost Will Be Waived for 2023 & 2024 Cohorts

The NAPCA Foundation has provided a generous two year grant to the MPP Academy to waive the tuition cost for those students admitted to our 2023 and 2024 cohorts with a demonstrated financial need.

Given the impact of COVID-19 on many families, our hope is to remove the financial barrier for those families in need by waiving the tuition cost to participate in NAPCA’s Medical Physician Preparation (MPP) Academy.

Commuter vs. Commuter Extended

Commuter refers to students participating in the academic program from 8am-5pm each day. Commuter Extended refers to the commuter day program plus additional time, 5pm-9pm. The Commuter Extended day program gives commuter students the opportunity to participate in evening activities such as social and recreational group activities and having dinner in the University dining hall with residential students and MPP Academy staff. The extended option also aids parents who are not able to pick up their children at 5:00 pm. Commuter and commuter extended students are responsible for the cost of travel to and from the program as well as individual spending money for souvenirs during college tours, medical school tours, and other program activities.
