Other Optional Fees
At ACHS, we are committed to making your education as affordable as possible. These are fees you may encounter if you have special circumstances during your course or program at ACHS.
For instance, you may need expedited shipping for course materials. Or, if you’re the kind of person that wants to get every certificate you can on the way to earning your degree (and why not?!), you simply pay a fee for each additional certificate. This pays for the time it takes our Registrar to verify your graduation application form, as well as the printing and mailing costs.
