Graduate Studies Tuition and Fees


DelVal is committed to making it financially possible for students to pursue graduate studies. Click on your program below for more information about the cost of tuition and fees.

The academic year begins July 1

Payment in full is due prior to the first day of the term in which you are registered unless satisfactory financial arrangements are made in advance with the bursar's office. Pending financial aid, enrollment in a payment plan for the correct amount and term(s), and anticipated military benefits are considered satisfactory financial arrangements. If payment in full is not received by the start of the term, and no financial arrangements are approved and in place, then a hold will be placed on your student account and you will not be permitted to register for future terms or receive transcripts until your student account balance is paid in full. Learn about the available payment plans.

Please note that invoices for the Summer II, and G6, and the Fall terms will be available online on July 1.

Information on the tuition refund policy can be found below.
