Varies by program
The domestic and international fee pages reference a 2026 fee schedule and state that tuition is processed after each trimester's census date using the schedule's unit prices. International students must pay first-trimester tuition on initial registration and subsequent instalments before each following trimester. Domestic payment plans or FEE-HELP may be available. A Student Services and Amenities Fee is also described. The supplied excerpts contain no fee amounts or currency, so domestic and international tuition ranges cannot be verified.
Tuition varies by program. Confirm with the university before applying.
