National Certification Exam
This exam is optional in the state of Arkansas, and does not mean that if you take it and pass it that you are licensed nationally. This is only the name of the examination itself! Licensure is a state by state regulation process. This exam is required by some states other than AR, however. The current fee at the time of printing is $225.00.


Financial Aid
Government grants and student loans are not available to students attending programs 500 hours in length. As that is all that AR requires for licensure, that is what we teach. We do not add “filler-time” that the student ultimately ends up paying extra for, even if they do qualify for financial aid. Many of our students who applied for this elsewhere and would have received it at other schools still would have to pay more out of their own pocket than our tuition without financial aid assistance. Our tuition is less than 1/2 of programs over 500 hours and require less time spent in school for graduation. At only $9.60/hr., our tuition is the least expensive training in the shortest amount of time that one can pay for to enter a career that pays approximately $55.00/hour. Our school is approved, however, for Veteran’s training through the GI bill and funding through AR Rehabilitation Services for those who qualify.
