What a first year actually costs
Tuition is rarely the number that decides anything. This is the whole first year, including the costs that usually surface late.
| TuitionPer year, as published by the university | $15,600 |
|---|---|
| Living costsAccommodation, food, transport — a working estimate | $13,000 |
| Student visaGovernment fee, one-off | $535 |
| Health insuranceTypically mandatory for international students | $1,800 |
| First year, all in | $30,935 |
About this figure: Billed at $800 per credit hour for 36 to 42 credits. The yearly figure assumes the midpoint (about $31,200 over two years), so your cost depends on how many credits you take.

After you graduate
Graduates of this program are eligible for 12-mo OPT / 36-mo with STEM extension in USA. Work rights are set by government policy rather than the university, and they change — check the current rules before you rely on them.
Rules in fluxDHS rule ending Duration of Status was blocked by a federal judge on 14 Sep 2026; existing rules stand while litigation continues.
What the headline leaves outSTEM extension requires the programme's CIP code to be on the DHS STEM list AND an employer enrolled in E-Verify. Max 90 days unemployment on initial OPT, 150 across both.
