Let's talk tuition

Tuition is $2,250 per course ($22,500 for the whole program). The rate is the same whether you are an Iowa resident or a nonresident.

Fees

Part-time Business Analytics students pay a one-time records and documents fee of $250. If you're a University of Iowa alumnus, you get to skip this fee.

Funding your degree

There are several options to consider for financing your Business Analytics credential.

Many of our students receive some reimbursement from their employer, either full or partial. Check with your company’s human resources department to find out if tuition assistance is available. Share the Part-time Master of Business Analytics Employer Guide with your supervisor or HR representative to start the conversation.

As a military Veteran or active-duty service member, you’re entitled to paying zero application fees. If you plan to use Veteran’s benefits, you can get help through the Office of GI Bill Services at 319-335-3895 or registrar-vets-office@uiowa.edu.

Federally subsidized loans are usually available for U.S. citizens and permanent residents. If you plan to go this route, you’ll want to complete the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) well in advance of starting classes. See financialaid.uiowa.edu/graduate for instructions and details.

Students also have access to a growing number of private loans. Contact your bank and research your options; terms and conditions for these programs vary.

Please visit the Office of Student Financial Aid's graduate student financial aid for information about financial aid at the University of Iowa.

Scholarships

If you've got a record of academic success, then you may qualify for a scholarship. A number of incoming students are selected as scholarship recipients each semester. Apply for admission by the priority application deadline and you’ll automatically be in the running for scholarships.

Applying for scholarships: timing

No separate application is required. Scholarships are awarded to incoming students who apply and have all of the relevant materials turned in before the priority deadline.

Later applications may be considered if funding's available, but for the best shot at scholarships, apply by the priority deadline.
