M.S from North Carolina State University [NCSU], Raleigh - Fees & Admission Details 2025

For each semester I have paid around 12k and that includes housing and food. I think that this is a fair price and there are def other schools that charge way more and you're getting less in return. There are tons of scholarships that the school makes us aware of including some that they apply for you based on your merit. In addition to scholarships, the school goes give out grants to help pay.

I have had a friend in the past go to this college and they had all the goods things to say about it. The application fee was waived for me which made me want to apply. I also read that this was one of the highest-rated schools and it seemed like a good place to start my higher education. I know that it may be a hard school to get into but with my educational background and positive attitude, I knew that I could make it in and I did.

The curriculum was pretty good, but it was focused on underclassmen trying to figure out what to do with their careers, not upperclassmen honing in their skills and interests. Also, syllabi didn't do the best job of explaining what the class would cover.

For in-state students, tuition was a base cost of around $10,000, and out of state tuition was about $30,000. Variable costs and fees were meal plans, textbooks, housing and potential utility costs, groceries, entertainment, dues for clubs, etc.

I think some of it shouldn?t be required; however, most of the course curriculum is fair for the program. I wish there were more courses towards plant research that could be applicable to job experience.

Fees are billed once a semester, which works well. They are administered by an e-bill, which means they're online.
