Tuition and Fee Information

At Mississippi State University, we're dedicated to providing a high-quality education that empowers you to achieve your future goals.

Tuition and required fees are charged on a per-credit-hour basis(*) to all students. Tuition is assessed each semester based upon a student's residency (resident, non-resident), level (undergraduate, graduate, professional), classification (freshman, sophomore, junior, senior, graduate), and campus (Starkville, Meridian, MGCCC, CVM, MSU Online Education). Other fees may be assessed based on a student's primary major or program of study. 

(*) Some specialized graduate and professional programs are assessed on a comprehensive-fee basis.

The following tuition and fee rates are the prevailing rates as determined by the Mississippi Institutions of Higher Learning, the governing board of Mississippi State. These rates are applicable at the time of publication and are subject to change without notice.
