Tuition Fees

Wondering how much it costs to complete your MS from US? 

Students who plan to study in states/cities like California, New York City, Chicago, New Jersey, Washington, Florida, Boston have to keep in mind that owing to the popularity of the location, they might have to spend more.

Moreover, if you plan to stay alone or with a single roommate in a nice furnished apartment, the expenses certainly will be higher. So find yourself a nice roommate before landing there.

Having said that, it is not only safe to share your apartment with a couple of students in a new place, the fun factor is what makes the Masters course all the more interesting.

The two primary expenses after reaching the States are Tuition Fee and Living Expenses.

Tution Fee:

Please check the list of  Tution fees.

Living Expenses:

Well, there's no accurate way to estimate living expenses as factors like

• Location
• Apartment Size
• Number of Roommates and
• Proximity to the University

drastically vary from individual to individual. However, on an average students tend to spend between $500 to $1100 per month which includes everything. If your course length is 2 years you'll end up spending around $15,000.
