Our estimate · net price only
Four years from now
This is a one-year program. Over four years you would pay $8,920 in net price, and students who complete leave with a median of $9,500 in federal loans.
We do not show what you would earn afterwards, because nobody publishes year-one earnings for a specific program. Guessing it would be the kind of number this site exists to avoid. The US median below is what the job pays nationally, for workers at every stage of a career.
