*****IMPORTANT THINGS TO KNOW BEFORE YOU ENROLL *****
- The winter session fits a fourteen week class into just four weeks, so you must be prepared to work very hard!
- All winter/summer classes at UMass are offered through Continuing & Professional Education (CPE) and are subject to CPE registration fees and tuition rates.
- Tuition for CPE classes can range from $390/credit to $525/credit, so be sure to open the class page in SPIRE and check the notes so you know what you’ll be paying.
- Current per-credit rates are $390 for most SBS courses, $482 for math or stats, and $525 for some Isenberg courses, and all include a $47 registration fee, so a CPE course could cost anywhere from $1,217 to $1,622 before adding in the cost of books.
- Most CPE classes are online, but some are in-person. Check carefully to see if your class is in-person and make sure you are willing to travel to that location during the winter or summer.
