The cost of the academic program is determined annually by GWU. For the cohort starting in November 2005, the rate is set as USD 16,900. This rate includes all tuition charges, registration fees and the graduation fee. Also included are all required textbooks, lecture materials, software and computer access time. However, prospective students should note that this amount does not include living expenses in Istanbul or Washington or travel expenses to and from Washington.


A limited amount of financial aid in the form of full or partial tuition scholarships may be available to highly qualified applicants.
