Understanding Professional Undergraduate Tuition and Fees
Transparent Pricing to Help You Take the Next Step
Finishing your bachelor’s degree is an investment in your future, and we want you to know exactly what to expect. Professional undergraduate (bachelor’s completion) tuition is charged per unit, so you pay only for the courses you take. Rates vary by program. To estimate your base tuition, multiply your program’s per-unit cost by the number of units you plan to take in a term. Some fees apply to all students and others are program specific; you’ll find them all in the tabs below. Many students also lower their cost through scholarships, federal aid, and other options, so be sure to explore financial aid for professional students to see how you can make your degree fit your budget.
Explore the list below to find your program and see tuition costs for the 2026-27 academic year.
Note: For each academic year, while prices are subject to change, tuition and fees are established regardless of instruction mode, and will not be prorated or refunded in the event that instruction transitions from face-to-face instruction to another mode of learning, including remote or online learning.
