Graduate Programs in Education
Tuition & fees
The total estimated program cost for the Graduate Programs in Education ranges from $22,000 - $30,000, based on the current tuition and fees for the 2025-2026 academic year. The tuition and fees are re-evaluated every year and are subject to change each fall for the following academic year. Tuition is charged on a per-credit basis, and the total cost per semester will vary depending on the number of credits a student enrolls in.
The total cost is an estimated program cost and is determined by specialization area. This estimate does not include discounted county rates for qualified students.
Incoming students may apply to transfer up to 9 credits from approved graduate-level program or related courses successfully completed at accredited colleges or universities. Students seeking transfer credits must submit a photocopy of course syllabus, catalogue description, and other material that adequately describes the course to the director.
