Graduate Tuition and Fees
Graduate students are considered full-time when they take nine (9) credit hours per semester, or six (6) credit hours per semester if they hold a teaching assistantship. Certain types of financial aid (e.g. the TEACH grant) may have different credit hour requirements for full time status designation. Students who plan to take student loans should consult individually with a financial aid counselor to ensure optimal financial aid distribution.
Graduate tuition is charged by credit; tuition is capped at 12 credit hours.
All fees and rates listed below represent current charges for matriculated students attending fall and spring semesters. All charges are subject to change. Interested persons should refer to the Student Accounts web pages at https://www.fredonia.edu/about/offices/student-accounts for updated charges.
