Applicable Fees
Newly matriculated graduate students (those formally accepted in the program) must pay a one-time Graduate Registrar's Service Fee in the semester in which they are formally accepted in the Part-Time MBA program. This fee applies to all newly matriculated students, in both on and off campus programs.
Program Fee Waiver - as a matriculated Graduate student, the University requires that you be enrolled in a minimum of 1 course during the Spring and Fall semesters. If you are unable to enroll for a course during those semesters, you must contact the Graduate Programs Office to apply and pay for the Program Fee, if applicable (a one-time waiver may apply).
IMPORTANT: If you do not enroll in a minimum of 1 course in the Spring and Fall semesters by the add/drop deadline OR do not apply for a Program Waiver, you will be withdrawn from the University for Failure to Enroll. Should this happen and you wish to be readmitted, you must contact the Graduate Programs Office immediately, pay the program fee, as well as a readmit fee. Please know that readmission is not guaranteed.
