Overview | Cost | Funding | FAQ
The cost of the MIA-MPH program is split between the two degrees and will correspond with the semesters students are enrolled in each school. Tuition and required fees for the first 1.5 years of the MIA-MPH degree will be charged according to the School of Public Health’s rates when the student is enrolled in the MPH portion of the program.
Tuition and required fees for the second 1.5 years of the MIA-MPH will be charged according to The Bush School’s rates when the student is enrolled in the MIA portion of the program. Additionally, MIA funding will not be awarded until the spring semester that the student enrolls in The Bush School and will be renewed in the student’s fall and spring semester of their third years as long as they maintain a set GPA. During this time, non-residents who receive a competitive Bush School Scholarship will also receive a non-resident tuition waiver allowing them to pay in-state rates.
