Finding Arizona College of Nursing-Tampa charges 39% above the national private for-profit median tuition.
Evidence Published tuition is $23,093. That is 39% above the national private for-profit median ($16,637). Versus the Florida median ($16,838), sticker tuition is 37% above. Versus the U.S. median ($11,900), sticker is about 1.9×.
Method Sticker tuition compared with Scorecard-derived medians by ownership, state, locale, and national rollups when available.

What undergraduates typically pay
Finding Average net price at Arizona College of Nursing-Tampa is $36,680.

Method Average net price from College Scorecard; compared with state, locale, and U.S. medians from EDsmart aggregates.
