General Cost for the program

 

It costs $11 200 per two terms (which is one full year). Therefore, since my program is five years, then it will cost $56 000. As for books and supplies, it will cost $2 000. For the residence at Ron Eydt Village or the Village 1, they are both first year student residences. For a single room, it costs $3 355 for the fall term, and $2 236 for the Winter/Spring term. Due to both being traditional style residences, a meal plan is required, and depending on which meal plan you get (light eater, normal eater, or heavy eater) it will range from $4 080 - $4 840. Therefore, for a single room, the total cost will range between $9 671 to $10 431. For the interconnecting rooms, it costs $3 202 for a room in the fall session, and $2 135 for the winter session. The meal plan is also the same price as a single room, and this leads to a total cost of $9471 to $10 177. Finally, for a double room, it costs $3 010 for the fall session, and $2 006 for the winter/spring session. The meal plan is also required, thus leading to a total of $9,096 - $9,856. Therefore it will cost five years a basic grand total of between $15 795 per term (so $157 950 for 5 years) if one chose a single room and the most expensive meal plan, to a low of $14 781 per term (so $147 810 for 5 years) if one chose a double room with the cheapest meal plan. There are no paid certifications needed for this program.

May be a bit expensive

It is a double degree program after all, so it will be on the more expensive side compared to a single degree program.
