Graduate Fees & Funding
Tuition for the Master of Professional Communication program is assessed by the term and not by the number of courses you take per term. Tuition is a yearly charge, which is broken into three equivalent payments for the three terms in a graduate academic calendar. For more information see Graduate Study fees., opens in new window
