Fees

Our tuition fees are very competitively priced. We want to provide an affordable
education that gives you the maximum return on your educational investment.

Program fees include:

  • Full tuition and orientation program
  • Access to UMass Boston facilities
  • UMass Boston support services

Health insurance

In accordance with the State of Massachusetts' Qualifying Student Health Insurance Program, all Navitas students must carry health insurance. Therefore, if you do not have health insurance under another plan with 'comparable' (that is equal or better) cover, you must buy the UMass Boston Student Health Insurance Plan.

Please note, the following does not meet the state criteria for 'comparable' insurance coverage:

  • Foreign (international) health insurance cover
  • Uncompensated Care Pool (free care)

Additional costs

These will vary according to individual student's requirements. Please remember that living in the city might be tempting, so you should plan your expenses according to your budget.
