Tuition and Fees

The rates below include the fall and spring semesters for a full-time student in a standard graduate rate program.  Please visit the Tuition and Fees section the Student Accounts website for part-time, online, doctoral, out-of-state reduced, and intersession rates.

FULL-TIME rates

Tuition and fees are not based on the level (graduate/undergraduate) of the course; tuition and fees are instead based on student level (graduate/ undergraduate), their residency (in state/out-of-state), their status (full-time or part-time), and if applicable, the course/program differential rate (MBA, MLS/MLIS, EdD, Online). A student who has earned a bachelor's degree and is not formally admitted to a second undergraduate program will be considered a graduate level student.
