Tuition Explanation
All graduate tuition is assessed on a per credit basis. Graduate students typically take 8 or 12 credits (2 or 3 classes) per semester, hence tuition rates are provided for both credit loads in the above chart. For example, if you take 4 credits your tuition would be $1,004 x 4, or $4,016.
If you do not register for the semester before the billing process, you will receive an estimated bill. This bill assumes you will register for 8 credits and lists charges accordingly. If you register for more or fewer than 8 credits, your final amount due will change.
Board & Fees
Billing Schedule
Emerson College bills students for tuition on a semester basis. If you do not register for a semester, you will receive an estimated bill when Emerson sends out its initial billing statement. This bill assumes you will register for 8 credits and lists charges accordingly. If you register for more or fewer than 8 credits, your final amount due may change.
Students with outstanding balances will receive email notifications (sent to their Emerson email accounts) until their balances are paid in full. For additional information, please see Financial Policies.
