Online MBA Tuition and Financial Aid
As you decide on your best-fit MBA program, understanding your financial commitment should be an important component of your criteria. At the University of New Haven, we’re committed to transparency about business school tuition and providing you with the resources you need to make your graduate education affordable and accessible.
Understanding MBA Tuition Cost
The total cost of your online MBA depends on your academic background and chosen concentration. Our flexible program structure means your business school tuition is based on the number of credits you need to complete:
Total Program Cost:
- $40,290 – For students entering with 34 credits (no foundation courses required)
- Up to $52,732.50 – For students completing STEM MBA with foundation courses
Cost Per Credit Hour: $1,185
Cost Per Course:
- Foundation courses (1.5 credits): $1,777.50
- Standard courses (3 credits): $3,555
- Capstone course (4 credits): $4,740
Most courses in the program are 3 credits, making budgeting and planning straightforward. When you’re calculating how much business school tuition costs for your specific situation, our admissions team can help you determine exactly how many credits you’ll need based on your prior academic experience and your chosen concentration.
Financial Aid Options
We believe that financial constraints shouldn’t stand between you and your educational goals. The University of New Haven offers multiple pathways to help make your online MBA tuition more manageable.

- Be officially accepted and matriculated into the MBA degree program

Additional Funding Options to Consider
Employer Tuition Assistance: Many employers offer tuition reimbursement or assistance programs for employees pursuing graduate degrees. Check with your human resources department to see if this benefit is available to you.
Payment Plans: Flexible payment options may be available to help you manage your business school cost over time. Contact our financial aid office to discuss payment plan options.
