Graduate Students

Select an option below to view 2024-2025 tuition rates for graduate students at NC State.

Tuition and fees are charged at the beginning of the semester and will not be refunded in the event some or all of the instructional format changes for any part of the academic year or summer session.

It is the student’s responsibility to review charges on their student account after registration.

An additional $1,182.28 Mandatory Health Insurance charge will be included on your account unless you waive out of the semester premium charge. The optional premium plan cost is $1,475.32.

Review the estimated costs of attendance for information about the full cost of attendance, including expenses beyond tuition and fees.

Certain graduate professional programs carry a tuition increment or “premium” in addition to the regular graduate tuition.  This increased tuition charge is used to maintain or enhance the excellence of the program while assuring access to them.

* Students enrolled in the College of Engineering will be charged a COE Program Enhancement Fee. Graduates will be charged $83.33 per credit hour ($750.00 for full time 9+ hours). See the Explanation of Tuition and Required Fees for additional information.
