The Graduate School
Tuition and Fees
Tuition costs for Texas residents are among the lowest of all fifty states, and nonresident tuition costs compare favorably with those of other institutions. For more information please visit the Office of Accounting / Tuition and Fees Rates site. This information should be used only as a guideline for estimating charges. All fees are subject to change without notice.
Graduate students at The University of Texas at Austin generally support themselves in one of the following ways: departmental aid in the form of scholarships, fellowships, and assistantships; fellowships administered by the Office of Graduate Studies; need-based financial aid administered by the Office of Student Financial Services; and outside funding. More than 50 percent of all students in the graduate school receive some form of financial award.
An additional type of financial assistance is available through various programs that provide tuition and fee exemptions for Texas residents who meet certain criteria. These programs allow some Texas residents to attend a public college or university in Texas without paying tuition or, in some cases, tuition and fees.
*Many non resident students receive waivers of the non resident portion of their tuition and therefore pay resident rates.
