Costs: MS Program and Coursework
Enrollment Costs
Please see the Office of the Registrar for current tuition and fees for graduate students at KUMC.
KUMC students are required to have a background check at their own expense. KUMC has a contract with a company to do background checks at a low cost to students. Information about the background check is sent to students in the admission acceptance package.
Tuition and Fees are established by the Kansas Board of Regents, independently of the KU Department of Dietetics and Nutrition, and are subject to change.
Graduate Assistantships
Occasionally, Graduate Teaching Assistantships, Research Assistantships and Graduate
Assistantships are available through the Department of Dietetics and Nutrition
