Graduate tuition is based upon 1/2 time status (6 hours) and can be adjusted to actual tuition above 6 hours. Tuition/fees may be adjusted to actual tuition/fees, after the census date.

Books/supplies may also be adjusted for hours enrolled above the budgeted amount. (Undergraduate -$45 per hour; Graduate - $65 per hours above budgeted amount.)

Professional judgments may be approved to increase cost of attendance for child care, medical, and other extenuating circumstances on a case by case basis.

Cost of attendance may be increased for classes with additional fees (ex. Aerospace, Business course fees and lab fees). Important information about cost of attendance for flight labs

Summer 2021 Cost of Attendance

The summer Cost of Attendance (COA) is based on your enrollment within the various parts-of-term.  Your COA is assigned once you register for summer classes and will adjust as you drop and add classes until aid has been disbursed.  If you receive a Federal SEOG or Federal TEACH Grant , your COA will be locked based on your enrollment within the various parts-of-term as of the census date (to be determined).  Please contact the MT One Stop for questions regarding your summer Cost of Attendance.
