Tuition & Fees

For your reference, here is a summary of the costs generally incurred by students in the CUSSW Doctoral Program. These figures are based on tuition rate estimates for the 2011-12 academic year only. Student tuition payments vary, of course, by the amount of financial aid that a student receives either from the School of Social Work or from outside sources. Health insurance fees are not included, as they may vary from student to student. Standard health services fees have been listed.

These are estimated figures for tuition rates and student fees for 2011-12, and are subject to change.
