Online courses in this program are assigned a technology fee of $120 per course.
**In addition, students in the fully online program must participate in a minimum of four proctored exams throughout the life of the program. These exams typically cost approximately $25 to $35 each. Students are responsible for the costs of all proctored exams taken. Students enrolled in the on campus program who register for online courses requiring a proctored exam will be responsible for the cost of the proctored exam.
The University's Employer Reimbursement Plan (ERP) is designed for students whose employers offer reimbursement for tuition costs. The plan allows participants to defer their employer-covered tuition payments to Northwestern until after the term has been completed. Please contact the Office of Student Accounts for more information and an application form.
Students will be required to pay tuition costs and any costs associated with any books and materials.
Students in master's degree programs may qualify for federal or private loans. Federal loan eligibility is usually limited to students taking at least two units of credit in the quarter for which they receive aid. Please note that depending on course availability, students may need to take a break for one or two quarters to maintain the two-credit minimum course load requirement for financial aid.
As at most universities, Northwestern University aid, assistantships, and stipends are reserved for PhD and MFA candidates.
Graduate students should direct questions to the Chicago Office of Financial Aid or by calling 312-503-8722.
The FAFSA is not required as part of your application, but we encourage all U.S. citizens and permanent residents to complete the FAFSA if they would like to be considered for any loans.
