Financial assessment is often paramount in a student’s decision to apply, enroll, and remained enrolled in a graduate program. In an effort to equally serve our in-state and out-of-state students, the Master of Public Health program does not charge a higher tuition rate based on residency (tuition rates are consistent among students who are Michigan residents, non-Michigan residents, and international residents).
