Tuition, Fees, and Financial Aid

Tuition and fees for the 2009-2010 year are $16,746 per year for residents and $22,200 per year for non-residents. In addition, students can expect the following annual costs: room and board, $10,260; books and supplies, $1,050; UO student health insurance, $1,964; UO parking, $750; UO matriculation fee, $300; and law school events fee, $150. Tuition and fee schedules are subject to revision each July by the Oregon State Board of Higher Education, and final determination on the amounts is available at that time.

The fee schedule is available at http://registrar/common/tuition/tuitionrates.php#grad.

For help in calculating your baseline costs per term to attend the UO as an admitted student and for information on fees (how much and what they are for), go to: http://registrar.uoregon.edu/common/tuition/tuition_estimator.php.

Because this is a self-supporting program, we are unable to offer staff fee tuition rates at this time.

When you are talking with the university financial aid office, be sure to identify yourself as a CRES student. (CRES is the term financial aid uses for our program.)

Securing a Graduate Teaching Fellowship (GTF) position can help lighten the financial load. GTF's include a tuition waiver plus a stipend. The Master's program is not yet able to offer any GTF's within the program but it is possible to secure a GTF elsewhere on campus. A number of our students have had GTF positions. We can give you a list of those if you are interested.

If you are interested in a GTF position, check the following links. In addition to the Graduate School GTF positions, other departments will offer GTF positions which may or may not be restricted to students from that department. You'll have to check the site of each department. Try the search function on the University web site as well.

The selection process is quite competitive since the positions are in such high demand.
