These figures may not be final.  Actual tuition, fees, and charges are subject to change by the Regents of the University of California and could be affected by increases or reductions in State funding or other developments. Accordingly, final approved levels (and thus a student's final balance due) may differ from the amounts shown.

Tuition and fees have been set regardless of the method of instruction and will not be refunded in the event instruction occurs remotely for any part of the Academic Year.  Figures for tuition and fees represent currently approved amounts and may not be final.  Actual tuition and fees are subject to change by the University of California as determined to be necessary or appropriate.  Final approved tuition and fee levels may differ from the amounts presented.

Master's Education Program Brochure 

The Master's Education Program begins in the summer (6 weeks, full-time) and continues through the academic year (fall, winter, and spring). It finishes the following summer (4 weeks, part-time). The entire program consists of three regular academic year quarters and two mini-quarters, which occur during the summers. The entire cost of the program is based on the five quarters. The program crosses two academic years since it spans over two summers.
