Policy Revised 09/01/2019

All tuition and fees of Fielding Graduate University are subject to change. Tuition, fees and other charges represented are good faith projections for the academic year; they are reviewed annually and are subject to change as deemed necessary by Fielding in order to fulfill its role and mission and to best serve the needs of its students. Tuition is set by the Board of Trustees annually based on input from Fielding's management, and student and faculty committees during the budget process. Tuition changes take effect September 1 of each academic year. Students are informed of tuition and fee changes in advance.

Students in master's programs that do not use an accelerated calendar are guaranteed their starting tuition rate for two years (six consecutive terms). When those six terms have elapsed, such students will begin to be charged at the current rate of tuition. Students in accelerated calendar master’s programs that are designed to be completed in less than a year, such as those that use modules, are not entitled to any tuition guarantee.

In the certificate programs (excluding Respecialization in Clinical Psychology, and postdoctoral Neuropsychology), students are guaranteed their starting tuition rate for one year (three consecutive terms). When those three terms have elapsed, the certificate student will begin to be charged at the current rate of tuition.

The time period guarantee clock begins at the initial term of enrollment in the master or certificate program, regardless of breaks due to leaves of absence or withdrawal periods. The original enrollment date also applies if the student starts at one degree level and switches later to another degree level (e.g., switches from certificate to master).
