Cost of Attendance for Master of Education for 2013/2014
We use an annual Cost of Attendance (COA) budget to determine your student loan eligibility. The COA budget includes expenses which are billed directly by CU (e.g. tuition), and other expenses that are not billed by CU, but are directly related to attending school (e.g. transportation, personal expenses and off-campus living costs).
On-campus and online tuition is $620 per credit.
