    FAQ - Program Costs

    Funding Information

    • Funding is typically not available for students pursuing an MS. Students who do not require funding may apply for the MS (either thesis or non-thesis). Before applying, students pursuing an MS thesis must first identify a faculty member willing to advise the thesis and cover the research costs before being considered for admission.
    • International students that do not require financial support must file a certified financial statement that indicates you have sufficient financial resources (around $70,000 USD) to meet all costs of your first year of graduate study in order to receive an I-20 or DS-2019 for studying at Georgia Tech. Tuition amounts can be found on the Bursar website. These amounts do not include living expenses.
