Tuition Discounts
Discounts are based upon available funding and may not be combined with other discounts or scholarships. Only one discount will be applied per course. If a student is eligible for more than one discount on the same course, the larger discount will be applied. Students must apply for discounts each semester.
No discounts will be applied for the doctorate programs.
