Master’s & Post-Graduate Costs

Full time

The average projected total costs (tuition and fees) of the 2021-2022 full-time graduate programs—which are based on 3-4 CUs each term—are as follows:

• 12 month program costs (12 CU program): $78,720
• 14 month program costs (13-14 CU program) $91,840
• 18 month program costs (16-17 CU program): $118,080
• 36 month program costs (9 term/34 CU program): $227,118

Part-time

Every student’s living situation and personal expenses are different, but below are the projected academic year Summer and Fall/Spring costs per CU. These can be multiplied by the total number of CUs in your part-time plan of study to estimate the total cost of an MSN program:
Cost per CU in Summer 2021: $6,398
Cost per CU in Fall 2021 or Spring 2022: $6,510

To be considered a full-time student you must have a course load of 3 CUs or more per semester, including summer terms; anything less, in any semester, is considered part-time. If you apply as a full-time student, but switch to part-time, lowering the number of CUs you take per semester will decrease the cost of your tuition and fees, which will in turn lower your student budget and reduce your financial aid eligibility. You will no longer be eligible for nursing grant or endowed scholarship funds.

The charts below outline costs based on the school year/summer sessions as well as include estimated other expenses like housing.
