The estimated total program cost shown above assumes successful completion of all required courses on the first attempt and completion of all program requirements within the standard program schedule. Students who repeat a credit-bearing course will be required to pay additional tuition. Students who require enrollment beyond the standard program schedule to complete a thesis, dissertation, or other final academic requirement will be required to pay an Extension Fee and records fee for each additional term of enrollment.

The Extension Fee applies when the student must remain enrolled to continue work toward completion but does not earn additional academic credits during the additional term. It is separate from tuition and covers continued academic supervision, advising, administrative support, and access to University resources. The Extension Fee for each additional term equals the tuition that would otherwise have been charged for a standard term under the rate in effect when the student originally entered the program, before any Tuition Relief, scholarship, or other discount, unless the University expressly approves a reduced fee in writing. Any Tuition Relief or discount reflected in the estimated cost applies only to the terms in the standard schedule and does not apply to repeated courses or additional thesis terms.
