No cost of attendance, borrowing figure or living allowance is published for this program, so there is no document in which a campus or living-arrangement gap could appear. The one split the chiropractic fee table publishes is by mode of attendance rather than by residence: the Student Government Association Fee is published twice, once On-Campus/Hybrid
and once "Online". D’Youville publishes one campus. Housing charges are published on the fees page under Room & Board Fees
, which lists a Housing Deposit
, a "SAY YES Housing Deposit" and a Residence Council
fee and no room or board rate; the page states 222 Apartments rate includes $225 in D'Youville dollars for a meal plan (full-time meal plan option is available for additional cost).
without publishing that rate, the word "additional" in it being a link to a further page.

How the figures are shown. published
One representative term, published four ways at once. The chiropractic table’s four value columns are headed Full-Time (per semester)
over "25-26", Part-Time (per credit hour)
over "25-26", Full-Time (per semester)
over "26-27" and Part-Time (per credit hour)
over "26-27" — each heading published on two lines, the year in italic beneath the basis. Its three tuition rows are stages of the program rather than terms of it: "Dual-Degree" First 4 Years
"$17,300" "$1,155" "$18,000" "$1,200"; "Dual Degree" Last 3 Years
"$20,325" "$1,355" "$21,000" "$1,400"; Professional Degree
3.5 Year Program
"$20,325" "$1,355" "$21,000" "$1,400". The fee rows carry the same four columns: Technology Fee
"$195" "$110" "$200" "$115"; Wellness Fee
"$70" "$70" "$75" "$75"; Full-time Chiropractic General Fee
"$360" "$205" "$365" "$210"; Chiro Medical Equipment Supply
One-Time Fee
"$1,300" "N/A" "$1,300" "$1,300". No term-by-term schedule across the program is published, and the program’s own unit is the trimester — Normal Length of Program: 10 Trimesters
— while the tuition table is published per semester.
Is a prior year shown beside the current one?
Yes. The table sets 25-26 and 26-27 side by side in one row of headings, so the year before the current one is published beside it for every tuition and fee row.
textQualifier attached to the figures. not-published
No qualifier attaches to the chiropractic figures. The tuition page carries The following are estimated tuition, fees, and expenses
and These expenses are variable
- both inside the PHYSICAL THERAPY and OCCUPATIONAL THERAPY blocks, not the chiropractic accordion. Tested: no estimate/vary/actual-cost cue appears in the chiropractic region.
Are board or licensure examination fees inside the published cost of attendance? not-published no cost of attendance is published for this program
Mechanism recorded: n/a
D’Youville publishes no cost of attendance for the Doctor of Chiropractic program, so there is no document in which a board or licensing examination fee could sit or be absent. What the tuition page publishes for chiropractic is a tuition-and-fee table inside an accordion headed Chiropractic
, under the page heading Programs with Specialized Cost Structures
. Its fee rows are grouped under Mandatory Fees
— Student Government Association Fee On-Campus/Hybrid
, Student Government Association Fee Online
, Technology Fee
, Wellness Fee
— and under School/Department Fees
— Full-time Chiropractic General Fee
and Chiro Medical Equipment Supply
over One-Time Fee
. No row names a board or licensing examination. The separate fees page adds one charge that reaches this program, Health Professions Fee
$95 per semester
, and names no examination either. The program page names the examinations without pricing them: Students who successfully complete the Doctor of Chiropractic Program are eligible to sit for the National Board of Chiropractic Examiners (NBCE) and the Canadian Chiropractic Examining Board (CCEB) licensure examinations.
The same tuition page does publish a cost of attendance for three peer doctoral programs — a column headed Total Cost of Attendance (total cost of completing the program) (3-year program 2026-2028)
for occupational therapy, and linked PDFs labelled DPT COST OF ATTENDANCE (PDF)
and Physician Assistant Cost of Attendance [PDF]
— so on this page the question is asked of other programs and not of this one.

textThe chiropractic table carries one, as its caption: New tuition prices take effect each year in the summer.
The wording is the table’s own — other tables on the same page caption themselves Tuition prices and fees are subject to change each year in the summer.
The page’s opening paragraph states a further condition without reserving a right: Below, you'll find detailed information about tuition and fees for all D’Youville University degrees and programs. Please note, in given our focused on the health sciences which often rely on labs and related consumable supplies, there are some situations where academic schools, programs, or courses may require additional fees or one-time costs.

Two sentences of that paragraph are ungrammatical as published — in given our focused on the health sciences
