Finding Institute of Medical Ultrasound charges about 1.9× the national private for-profit median tuition.
Evidence Published tuition is $31,052. That is about 1.9× the national private for-profit median ($16,637). Versus the Georgia median ($8,492), sticker tuition is about 3.7×. Versus the U.S. median ($11,900), sticker is about 2.6×.

What undergraduates typically pay
Finding Average net price at Institute of Medical Ultrasound is $51,036.

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