Tuition and Fees

The MSSE tuition rate is $892.50 per unit, thus each three-unit course is $2,677.50.

Given that the program consists of a total of 30 units, the total tuition for the program is $26,775.00.

The MSSE program is also subject to campus auxiliary fees including the student union fee, ASI fees, health center fees, and the student success fee. Please refer to the mandatory auxiliary fee page for current fees.

Cost of Attendance Elements

Tuition and fees are paid directly to Cal Poly Pomona but are only a part of a student’s education costs. The overall Cost of Attendance is broadly defined as the average cost to attend Cal Poly Pomona for one academic year, (which consists of the Fall and Spring semesters) and includes additional expenses ranging from transportation to books and course materials.

Here’s a breakdown of the cost of attendance elements you should take into consideration after tuition and fees:

Food and Housing
Transportation between campus, place of residence, and place of work
Books, course materials, supplies, and equipment
Personal Expenses
Dependent Care Expenses (for those who have one or more dependents)
Direct Loan origination fees (for those who borrow a Federal Direct loan)

Visit our Office of Financial Aid & Scholarships website for a full listing of the cost of attendance elements, to view our current standard cost of attendance budgets, and to learn about the variety of resources that may help reduce your overall costs.

All students are now eligible to enroll in a Monthly Payment Plan to cover tuition and fees. The plan will provide you with the option to start making smaller, monthly payments in advance of the semester. Enroll EARLY (even before registration) in order to lock in the longest payment term and smallest monthly payments! To learn more, visit https://www.cpp.edu/student-accounting/payment-options/paymentplan.shtml

The CSU makes every effort to keep student costs to a minimum. Fees listed in published schedules or student accounts may need to be increased when public funding is inadequate. Therefore, the CSU must reserve the right, even after initial payments are made, to increase or modify any listed fees, without notice, until the date for a particular semester or quarter has begun. All CSU listed fees should be regarded as estimates that are subject to change upon approval by the Board of Trustees, the Chancellor, or the Presidents, as appropriate. Changes in mandatory systemwide fees will be made in accordance with the requirements of the Working Families Student Fee Transparency and Accountability Act (Sections 66028 - 66028.6 of the Education Code).
