Additional Expenses

There are additional expenses associated with earning your graduate degree beyond the tuition charged per credit hour of coursework. Some such costs include professional development opportunities (travel to conferences and institutes, event attendance, etc.), books and materials, and technology.

Borrowing Responsibly

For you to be considered for most forms of financial aid, you should complete the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA). Even if you don’t plan to accept student loans, US citizens and eligible non-citizens should complete the form to be considered for certain need-based grants and other types of funding.
