GTCC DENTAL HYGIENE PROGRAM - ESTIMATED COSTS FOR FIRST / SECOND YEARS
To help aid you in your financial planning, we have included an ESTIMATED list of some of the additional items (beyond tuition) you will need to budget for. Many of these items you will need to purchase at the start of fall semester, others will be needed by the start of spring semester. We recognize that these costs represent a great deal of money. Please note, though, that most of these costs will only be paid once. For instance, some items will be of use to you across the length of the program, such as your face shield, tackle box, some textbooks, and your instrument kits. Conversely, tuition and fees will need to be paid on a semester-by-semester basis. Tuition amounts can be retrieved from the general GTCC college website.
