Costs

US dollars as the school publishes them. Each fee keeps its basis (per credit, per term, per year, whole program), academic year and student category, and is never converted or added up for you.

Tuition is not published on the pages we checked. That does not mean the program is free: ask the school for current tuition, fees and other mandatory costs.
