The program provides many additional services and materials that are not normally provided for other graduate-level students, thus we do not follow the basic tuition schedule for the University. The program cost schedule is as follows:

Students normally remit tuition payments at the beginning of each semester. Customized payment plans can be worked out in advance for students through the Office of Financial Aid.
Most of the students who enroll in the master's program enjoy the financial support of their employers.
