Tuition & Financial Aid
Together, we are stronger.
At NDA, we prepare our students with a strong foundation so they are inspired to open their hearts and minds – and share their voices. NDA graduates leave not only with a diploma but also with the enduring support of a community that understands the unique journey of an NDA woman, creating a foundation for success that extends far beyond the classroom.
We take great pride in our 100% college matriculation rate, a testament to the commitment to academic excellence and the preparation of students for the challenges of higher education and beyond.
