Our office uses estimated information to create a standard cost of attendance, or budget, for all students. This information varies depending on undergraduate or graduate status as well as residency, enrollment status ( half-time, full-time etc), and living arrangements. Below are the most common budgets used. These figures are for the entire academic year, fall and spring, so one-semester costs can be figured by dividing the figures in half.

**This estimate is for general graduate programs, students in Social Work or other specialized fields may have higher tuition.
Regardless of the type of aid package a student receives their total awards may not exceed their cost of attendance or budget.
