2025-2026 Academic Year
Continuing education students benefit from an affordable per-credit rate structure. Continuing education students are not eligible for scholarships or grants due to the per-credit rates; however, some students may qualify for supplemental tuition discounts through Rider's university partnerships with employers and organizations in the region.
