The cost of the program for Fall 2007 is $5500 per semester, or $27,500 over five semesters, which includes tuition, fees, books and class materials, meals during special events, laptop computer, PDA, membership in the Association for Computing Machinery, professional certification, and a graduation banquet and hooding ceremony. This cost is fixed per cohort, and will not increase for students once they join a cohort.

$5500 per semester tuition is prorated over the length of the program and will be due on or before the first day of class each semester.

Payment of the $5500 semester tuition fee can be made by check, credit card, or cash.

• Checks are sent to the Kennesaw State University, Bursar's Office, 1000 Chastain Road, MB #0503, Kennesaw, GA 30144-5591.
• Credit card payments are made by contacting the Bursar's Office at 770-499-3294.
• Cash payments must be made at the Cashier's Window in the Student Center.
• Credit card transations will have a surcharge added, see the bursars office web site for details.
• If Tuition is Paid by Company, in most instances, a company will not pay tuition until after grades are assigned; this is typically a reimbursement.
• The amount must be paid at the beginning of the semester, so the student must first pay the tuition and then be re-imbursed by their employer or make other arrangements.
• Any questions regarding payment of tuition should be directed to Tasha Dennis in the Department of Computer Science and Information Systems, located in the Ann & John Clendenin Computer Science building.
