Cost of Attendance

The standard cost of attendance includes tuition and MBA fees, books, rent, food, personal expenses, transportation, and a computer allowance. As you develop your budget, we encourage you to account for additional costs for transformational experiences beyond the classroom, such as Random Walks, Industry Treks, student groups, and events.

**University rates for health insurance are to be determined. This number is estimated.

***This number is an estimated total. If you have dependent expenses—a spouse who does not work, a child, or both—the Financial Aid Office may be able to adjust your cost of attendance to reflect potentially higher living expenses.
