Costs and Financial Support

The estimated tuition cost for full-time enrollment for one year (nine courses, three per quarter) can be found on the Bursar’s website.  Enrolling in a program of study includes additional costs beyond tuition. For a full list of direct and indirect expenses associated with the cost of attendance, please visit the Cost of Attendance page of the Graduate Financial Aid Office website.

Limited merit-based aid is available. Applicants who wish to be considered for aid are reviewed as part of the application review process. There is no separate application form for divisional financial support. Please contact mastersadmissions@uchicago.edu for additional information about financial aid for master's programs.

In the second year, students receive a scholarship that covers a significant portion of that year's tuition. To receive this scholarship, students must have completed all 9 first-year courses by the start of Autumn Quarter and maintained a 3.5 GPA in those courses.
