Your cost of attendance will vary based upon which program you are enrolled in. Graduate cost of attendance is based on 2 semesters and taking at least 4 credit hours per semester as a student living off campus. The breakdown includes costs paid directly to Westminster (tuition and fees) as well as estimates of other expenses you may incur that vary and are not paid to Westminster (room and board, books and supplies, transportation, personal expenses, and the Federal Direct Student Loan Fee).
Graduate tuition and fees are dependent upon which program you are in and how many credit hours you are taking. See the current per credit hour cost for the program you are interested in enrolling in to determine the total cost of your tuition and fees for the number of credit hours you plan to take.
