Full-time status for Master’s Students is defined as: Enrolled in 9 units or more OR Enrolled in any “EGS 883” placeholder course (Masters Continuing Student Status)
Full-time status for DSc Students is defined as: Enrolled in 9 units or more OR Enrolled in any “EGS 884” placeholder course (Doctoral Continuing Student Status)
Full-time status for PhD Students is defined as: Enrolled in 9 or more units OR Enrolled in any "EGS 9XXX" placeholder course. PhD students are required to maintain full-time status.
- Tuition is based on the number of enrolled course units. When a student takes 9 or more units, a flat-rate tuition is applied. A per unit rate is applied if a student is enrolled in 8 or less units.
- Tuition for full-time students is determined by each student’s prime division, not by the division that teaches the course. Students should check with their department before enrolling in courses outside their division.
- International graduate students are not permitted to register for fewer than 9 units without special permission from the Office of International Students and Scholars.
