Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What is the cost of tuition? How can I pay my tuition?

A: Cost of tuition

    Methods of Payment

The tuition is the same for international and domestic students. However, the cost of attendance may vary depending on the number of credits (units) required to complete a particular graduate program and whether you are attending part-time or full-time. 

A student's educational expenses are assessed each semester and are based on the number of credits (also known as "points") for which he or she registers. In addition to tuition, students also pay registration/student service fees. The Board of Trustees of New York University reserves the right to alter the schedule of fees without notice. We expect a moderate increase in tuition and registration/service fees each academic year.
