2021–22 Graduate Tuition and Fees

All tuition, fees, and other charges stated in this publication are payable in U.S. dollars ($US). The following charges do not apply to undergraduate tuition courses. If enrolled in a combination of undergraduate courses (numbered 0000–4999) and graduate courses (numbered 6000–7999), you will be charged according to each category. In other words, the total credits taken in courses numbered 0000–4999 will be charged according to the undergraduate rate schedule without regard to the number of credits taken in 6000–7999 level courses.

In general, your courses will be charged the rate associated with the discipline or school offering the course instead of being based on the degree program you are pursuing. Doctoral students who take 6000-level courses within their school/ department are charged at the doctoral rate. If doctoral students take 6000-level courses from other schools/departments they are charged at that program rate.
