VALUE
A graduate degree is an investment in your future, and we want to equip you to succeed.
• As a graduate student at Carson-Newman you’ll receive access to the full Microsoft Office suite.
• Graduate students enrolled in at least six (6) credit hours qualify to apply for federal financial aid. If you qualify, you can borrow up to $20,500 per year, which is more than enough to cover the total program cost.
• You’ll be assigned a personal faculty advisor, who will help draft a course plan tailored to your specific goals.
PAYMENT PLANS
Our no interest payment plans help reduce up-front costs. Enrolling in a payment plan allows you to make monthly payments on your direct charges instead of paying your full balance before classes start.
Our Office of Financial Aid is available to guide you through the many options available to graduate students at Carson-Newman.
