Billed-semester rate only. Earlier cohort schedules charge five of seven semesters; do not assume the new cohort uses an unchanged billing pattern.
PA programs
in New Jersey.
New Jersey applicants should compare seven New Jersey PA sponsors and the Jefferson New Jersey campus associated with a Pennsylvania sponsor. The campus distinction matters: accreditation counts follow the sponsor, while commuting and relocation decisions follow where teaching takes place.

What is the cheapest PA school in New Jersey?
New Jersey sources use per-credit, per-semester and full-program prices. A per-semester number is not the entire degree price, and the number of enrolled semesters may differ from billed semesters. Rowan publishes resident and nonresident projections; other schools require a cohort-specific quote before a comparable total can be shown.
No current full-program quote meets the comparison criteria above. Review each card’s rate year, estimate or missing information before comparing costs.

Planning for PA school in New Jersey
Match the campus to its sponsor
Jefferson New Jersey belongs to the East Falls/New Jersey sponsor listed in Pennsylvania. Use its own campus and program information rather than the Center City program.
Confirm billed semesters
FDU publishes cohort-specific semester rates. An older billing schedule is not proof that a later entering class will have the same number of tuition-bearing semesters.
Read the current accreditation status
Kean and Saint Elizabeth are listed on Accreditation-Probation in the current roster. Read the accreditor history and the program response before making an enrollment decision.
Why are there more campus listings than New Jersey sponsors?
The state has seven sponsors on the ARC-PA list, plus Jefferson’s New Jersey campus under a Pennsylvania sponsor. The campus is useful to applicants but is not an eighth New Jersey sponsor.
Does New Jersey residency always lower PA tuition?
No blanket rule is assumed. Rowan publishes separate resident and nonresident budgets; use each program’s official policy and the rate that applies to you.
What is the cheapest PA school in New Jersey?
No definitive statewide ranking is claimed. Compare the verified complete-program figures and explicit estimates separately, including fees, residency and cohort year.
Sources you can check
Accreditation and state placement use the current ARC-PA roster, with program sites for campus details. Each cost card links to its university source. “Verified” means the displayed amount and scope were located in an official source on the review date; it does not mean the rate applies to every future entering class.
Tuition-only and tuition-plus-fees totals stay separate. Annual and per-term figures are not treated as full-program totals. Calculated estimates are labelled and excluded from full-program sorts. “Not verified” means a reliable comparable amount was not established, not that a program is free.
Continued, Provisional and Probation are accreditation statuses; applicant programs are not yet accredited. “F” identifies a focused visit. Program-specific cost and accreditation details here reflect this state review; the national directory and paid comparison dataset retain their separately dated snapshots.
