Curators approve New Tuition structure

We wanted to make sure all of our international students know about the new tuition structure that goes into effect this fall. This new tuition structure was approved by our governing body, the University of Missouri System Board of Curators, in May. Under this new structure, undergraduate and graduate resident and non-resident tuition rates will increase by the Consumer Price Index (CPI) of 2.1 percent. This increase complies with a state law that requires public colleges and universities to limit tuition increases to the CPI. In addition, the curators approved a new tuition rate for international students that is $75 per credit hour above the non-resident (out-of-state) rate.  Please view this website for the new tuition structure.

Missouri S&T continues to be a great investment. The average starting salary for graduates with bachelor’s degrees is over $62,000, and the average starting salaries for graduates with master’s degrees is now nearly $81,000. Ph.D. graduates also have strong starting salaries, averaging over $74,500. This great return on investment is why S&T is one of the top three engineering schools in the nation, as ranked by USAToday and CollegeFactual.com, and why we are No. 6 in the nation for return on investment, according to PayScale.com.

In addition, Missouri S&T is the only university in the University of Missouri System designated as “highly selective” by the Missouri Department of Higher Education. This designation not only contributes to S&T’s recognition as one of the world’s finest research universities, but also adds tremendous value to your Missouri S&T degree.
