You can find more information about additional fees, online program costs, and the previous year's rates on the Student Accounts website below.

Approximate tuition costs for full-time graduate students:

Graduate students who are enrolled in an on-campus program and studying full-time must be enrolled in a minimum of 9 credit hours for the fall and spring semesters. The estimated total cost of tuition for a full time graduate student registered for 9 credit hours for the Fall 2024 and/or Spring 2025 semesters is $19,170 per semester.

Approximate tuition costs for part-time graduate students:

Graduate students who are enrolled as part-time students are registered for less than 9 credit hours per semester. The total estimated tuition costs per semester are based on the total credit hours a part time student is registered for.

Please note, students who are studying on an F-1 visa are not eligible to enroll as part-time students unless they have been approved to take a Reduced Course Load. F-1 visa holders are only eligible to be approved for a Reduced Course Load during their final semester in the program if they have less fewer than 9 credit hours remaining in order to fulfill their degree requirements.
