Fee notes
Year: 2026 Scholarships: Reduced rates for eligible service members and families are mentioned on the program page. The dollar amount of that reduction was not on the page reviewed. The university tuition table places business administration (MBA) in the specialty graduate rate. That rate is $694 per credit for Maryland residents and for out-of-state students in Fall 2026, Winter 2027, and Spring 2027. Summer 2027 is also $694 for the in-state specialty rate.
Fee notes
The program page says the MBA can be earned for about $21,000 and about $21K. It does not show the credit count behind that figure, so this is the school's approximate statement, not a calculated total.
