"BethanyFazekas"I was excited to learn directly from professors I had read about in my undergraduate program...Their vast, global experiences were something I did not take for granted... AU professors work hard to make sure the classes are extremely interactive. Honestly, it felt like I was sitting in a classroom with my classmates. It was just very interactive and engaging. I would recommend this program to anyone who is currently teaching ESL. This program can help expand your knowledge on TESOL, and it gives you a lot of practical tips for being successful in the classroom."– Elizabethtown, Pennsylvania School District ESL Teacher Bethany Kazekas

We endeavor to offer a discounted on-campus housing option for the residential session, or you may opt for alternate accommodations. The cost of travel will vary, depending on your distance from the residential session and your mode of transportation. Anaheim University does not provide visa services. For MA in TESOL students attending the four-day residential sessions, it is the students’ responsibility to ensure that they have taken care of proper visa procedures, if required.

**Students will spend a total of 2 terms and 8 units completing the research portfolio or thesis. Students choosing the thesis track will also have the option of paying $450 to have their thesis professionally bound.

The list of tuition fees does not include textbook fees. Textbooks average approximately $100 - $200 per course.

Note: Anaheim University makes certain provisions in order to provide access to library resources and library services for all students enrolled directly through Anaheim University. However, students enrolled in Anaheim University’s online graduate degree programs are required to have an additional reserve fund to be used for the purchase of journals and research - materials that will aid them in their studies by providing information specific to their unique areas of interest and research - and to provide access to software and other resources that may help them in the completion of their studies. The research reserve fund is $1,500 for masters students to be used over the duration of their program. Students are not required to spend the entire research fund - only that amount necessary in order to carry out their research.

The above itemizes all of the fees and charges for which the student is responsible. Our refund policy can be found in the Policies and Procedures section.

Each course is US$2,000.00 for tuition excluding books, materials and other costs as follows. Students must pay the required tuition fee prior to commencing their next course. The student is not required to pay this tuition fee until the student wishes to register for his or her next course.

Residential Requirements

Residential Sessions (Residentials)

The Residentials are an integral part of Anaheim University's Ed.D. in TESOL and MA TESOL programs, and they are widely considered by students to be their favorite component of the program. The Residentials have two primary aims:

  • To complement the existing curriculum by focusing on specific topics that are introduced in the online courses but not addressed in detail
  • To enhance the sense of community among the students and faculty members in the programs through face-to-face communication.

 

At the Residentials, formal lectures are kept to a minimum. Instead, students work collaboratively, engage in debates, make presentations, and focus on practical assignments and tasks in ways that are limited in an online environment. The Residentials also provide the instructors with an opportunity to model pedagogical practices. By taking part in simulations, debates and other activities, students get to see firsthand how these activities can be incorporated into their own instruction. They complete a series of experiential application tasks that complement the theoretical and empirical input provided through the online courses.

Students must attend two four-day Residential sessions during their program. Students who register for a Residential will receive information prior to the start of the program that contains details about accommodations, schedule, pre-residential tasks and pre-residential reading. Typically, there are two groups -- one for the MA students and one for the Ed.D. students -- along with three plenary sessions that bring the two groups of students together. The tuition for the Residential Session is included in the total program price, but students must pay for their own travel, room and board. The Residential Session typically alternates between California and Asia.
