Payment Schedule

Payments are made at the time of registration; total fees due are available through MyCSUSTAN. Late fees are assessed after each missed payment. Books are purchased separately. Students can buy them at the campus Bookstore or through online retailers. To determine which books to buy, refer to the syllabus for each course. Students can find syllabi on Canvas, Moodle, or by contacting the instructor directly. 

Financial Aid

Financial Aid is available for the Stanislaus State MBA program. We recommend that you begin the financial aid process as early as possible, even if you are still deciding whether to apply for aid. 

To get started, submit the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) at your earliest convenience. You do not need to be admitted to the program to file the FAFSA. Use institution code 001157 when completing the application. Submit the form to the address listed on the FAFSA. Please allow 4-6 weeks for processing. 

Contact the Stanislaus State Financial Aid Office for additional assistance to learn about other financial support options. Scholarships may be available through the university, the Graduate School, or the MBA department. 

Graduate Equity Fellowships, funded by the CSU system,  provide financial support to economically disadvantaged students and aim to increase diversity in graduate education. Applications are accepted each spring, and recipients receive funding to help cover tuition and book expenses for the upcoming academic year. 

Important Notes

  • Review all Terms & Conditions of your financial aid awards.
  • If admitted, your bachelor's degree must be officially conferred, and official transcripts must be on file with the university before you can enroll and receive financial aid.
  • You must be enrolled in at least two MBA/graduate courses per semester to remain eligible for financial aid.
