Costs

The University of Nevada offers an excellent value for graduate work. In-state tuition and mandatory fees for the three-semester master’s degree in journalism totals approximately $7,000 for the 33 credits of course work. Non-residents and international students pay extra fees. Tuition and fees for in-state, non-resident and international students for the current semester are outlined on the Cashier’s Office Web page.

Graduate assistantships are available for selected students. Graduate assistants work 10 hours a week and earn $700 a month; a few 20-hour a week assistantships are available for $1,400 a month. Students on assistantships received reduced rates for tuition and all non-resident and international fees are waived. If you are interested in applying for a graduate assistantship please indicate in your cover letter to the Graduate Director or email her directly.
