Listed GPAs are not admitted-class averages. A program may use alternative routes, prerequisite-only thresholds or recommendations; “See profile” is not a promise of no requirement. Costs are full-program tuition plus required fees where the program publishes them; open “Cost context” for the breakdown and cohort. Living costs are additional. Check your CASPA GPA →

Across six semesters, tuition is $96,000. Required university-billed fees total $3,750, for $99,750 in direct program cost. The separate estimated indirect allowance is $30,300 per year; using the same annual allowance for two program years gives a $60,600 planning projection and $160,350 when added to direct cost. The two-year figures are arithmetic projections, not separately published CSU totals. Tuition and fees may change; health-insurance cost and travel for a distant rotation remain unpriced. |

Required educational items and program fees are included in tuition. Total cost of attendance, including living costs, is $181,921 on campus or $187,819 commuting. These figures combine schedules from two different years, so they are not a guaranteed bill for a single cohort. A required $100 CastleBranch payment is not added, because the tuition page says screening is included and it is unclear whether the two overlap. |
