Tuition

Tuition for the certificate program is charged on a per-course basis, unless taken as part of a graduate degree program. Courses taken through the certificate program are offered at a special rate. The 2011-2012 tuition will be $2,450 per course (for most courses). The 2012-2013 tuition will be set by mid-April, 2012.

This rate applies only to the five required courses, which include the internship. Additional courses are charged at the higher, non-certificate rate.

Students in the certificate program may be eligible for Stafford Loan assistance.

On a very limited, space-available basis, some Museum Studies courses may be open to students who are not pursuing the certificate. Contact 617-627-3395 a minimum of one month prior to the start of the semester for more information.
