AAI Q/A: What is an Estimated Cost of Dietetic Internship?

Applying for a dietetic internship is stressful enough, but add on the fact that you could be relocating to somewhere new where you will need an apartment, food, and other expenses; money becomes something that adds more stress to the equation. So, how much will a Dietetic Internship cost you, without adding in the expense of rent, etc? Here is a very estimated figure:

(I’ve used The University of Reno, Nevada for my figures)

·      $60 fee to apply to the University

·      Tuition fee of $ 246.50 per credit hour (subject to change)

·      $4000 for Dietetic Internship Program fee

·      Uniforms, books & general supplies ($100-200)

This might seem like a huge price to pay to complete an internship, but the cost of your future doing something you love is pretty priceless, right? Just remember that every month when the bill comes in the mail J
