Tuition and Fees (2025-26)

Programs listed below operate on a flat-tuition, program-rate basis with the exception of Flex MBA which operates on a cost-per-credit-hour basis.  Program acceleration does not decrease overall program tuition costs. In these instances, all remaining program tuition will be paid in the final semester within which a student is enrolled. Tuition rates and fees are subject to annual increases.

Health Insurance

Full-time students at Washington University are required to carry health insurance. Full-time graduate students on the Danforth Campus are automatically enrolled in (and billed for) the basic health insurance policy. If proof of comparable coverage is provided, then a student may be able to waive the policy. International graduate students are not eligible to waive out of the insurance plan. There are also options for spouse or family coverage at an additional cost. To review the plans and details concerning the waiver process, please visit the Student Health Insurance page of the Washington University Student Affairs website.

Tuition Refunds

Students who are considering a withdrawal from their program should consult with their academic advisor. To officially withdraw, a written notification must be provided. Students who withdraw after a term is underway ordinarily receive a tuition refund as follows, based on the last day of class attendance.

Employer Tuition Reimbursement and Sponsorship

Many employers provide full or partial tuition assistance to employees who are pursuing graduate studies. Some employers will allow Washington University to bill them directly, while others expect the student to front the costs and receive reimbursement after the successful completion of course work. Students should contact their organization's human resources department for specifics regarding the amount of support offered as well as the process for securing those benefits. Olin Graduate Financial Services — along with their colleagues in Student Accounting — can assist students with understanding the university's process and how it aligns with the requirements of different companies.

Financial Aid

The Olin Graduate Financial Services team can help students understand their eligibility for federal and/or private loan options and explain the loan application process. Current federal loan terms and a private loan research tool can be found on the Student Loan Options page of the Olin Financial Services website.
