Books and Materials

Textbooks are typically required for graduate courses. Students purchasing textbooks should make sure the book is the correct edition. Instructors may also have created a custom textbook that is only available at the campus bookstore. Students should budget for the costs of textbooks for each course, typically between $50 and $250.

Instructors may also provide other materials and course packs for students to purchase. The costs for students may include printing, processing, and copyright clearance fees. The charges for these materials, which can range from $10 to $80, are typically entered into the student accounts system and appear on the students’ invoice along with tuition and fees.

Lab fees are assessed in certain courses and can go up to approximately $200 per course.
