In support of our aim to grow the largest network of healthcare workers, Futuro Health provides generous financial support. Students will not pay tuition for programs as all such expenses are covered by some combination of Futuro Scholarship funding and federal need-based financial aid. Futuro Health requires all eligible students to complete and submit a FAFSA (Free Application for Federal Student Aid))

Non-refundable program registration $100 fee.

Non-refundable Human Touch Healthcare registration $50 fee (if prerequisite is required by your chosen program).

You have the option to join SEIU-UHW’s Healthcare Justice Division to receive additional benefits for $20 per month.

A financial aid application may be required for select education providers prior to beginning the program. Some Ed Providers will also require students to utilize Pell Grant Funding.

Each Ed-Provider has program-specific costs. There may be minimal additional costs based on your geo-located school, such as: background check, drug screen, and immunization costs.

After selecting a start date with a navigator, payments can be found on the Student Portal. Payments are live 24-48 hours after selecting a program start date, and you will receive an email alerting you that a payment is available. Watch a self-help video on how to make your payments here.
