Erikson Institute

What is the cost of studying for a year at Erikson Institute?

Erikson Institute's reported graduate charges for 2024-25 were the same for in-state and out-of-state students. These are historical published tuition and fee figures, not a personalized bill or a current-year price quote.

• Average full-time graduate tuition: $13,564 for the academic year.
• Required full-time graduate fees: $600 for the academic year.
• Reported part-time graduate charge: $1,157 per credit hour.

The full-time tuition and required-fee figures total $14,164 for that reporting year. The per-credit figure describes a different billing basis and should not be added to that total. A complete budget also needs books or materials, transportation, personal expenses, and housing and food. Field placements may introduce travel or scheduling costs.

Students should use their program's current tuition schedule and individual aid offer to estimate what they would pay. Eligible graduate students may be able to use federal student loans, and program-specific institutional assistance may affect the balance. Federal graduate aid generally requires the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA); grants commonly associated with undergraduate study should not be assumed to cover a graduate degree. Ask the financial aid office about scholarships, loan eligibility, and any aid deadlines before comparing offers.

What are the work-study opportunities at Erikson Institute?

Erikson Institute students may combine graduate study with professional work or supervised field experience, but a placement required for a degree is not automatically a paid job. Students should examine their program's schedule and placement requirements before deciding how much outside work is feasible.

Federal Work-Study, where offered to an eligible student, is financial aid earned through an approved job; it is neither an upfront tuition discount nor a guarantee of employment. Ordinary part-time jobs and internships have different hiring and compensation rules. Applicants seeking work during a program should ask financial aid whether Work-Study is available in their award and ask their program how it supports placement searches, professional networking, and career planning. Those services should not be confused with a verified job-placement rate.
