Tuition and Fees
Overview
Students who register for a course in these programs are assessed tuition and mandatory fees. Post-Baccalaureate Programs use the semester academic calendar. The academic year runs from fall semester through the following Summer Session.
Applies to course sections as follows:
| Program | In-Person Section Code | Online Section Code |
|---|---|---|
| HESPIE | PBH* | PDH* |
| SIE | SEF* (fall); SES* (spring); SEU* (summer) | PDS* |
Program Tuition
Tuition assessed at a special per credit rate that does not differentiate between Maryland residents and non-residents. This special rate only applies to course registration as specified in the program’s plan of study. Students who register for course/sections outside of these programs are assessed tuition based on their residency.
