University of Cincinnati graduate students living in several nearby Kentucky counties will benefit from a tuition rate developed by the Graduate School and approved by President Nancy Zimpher. This graduate metropolitan rate, which covers all but one of the university’s graduate degree programs, is significantly lower than the university’s out-of-state rate and minimally higher than the rate charged to in-state residents.
The new rate equals Ohio in-state tuition plus $100 per quarter for full-time graduate students (up to 18 credit hours per quarter); Ohio in-state tuition plus $120 per semester for full-time Law (JD) students (up to 18 credit hours per quarter); and Ohio in-state tuition plus $120 per quarter for full-time Medicine (MD) students (up to 24 credit hours per quarter). The metropolitan rate for part-time graduate students and overload credit hours is in-state tuition plus $10 per graduate credit hour. These fees are effective immediately and will remain in effect until revoked by the University of Cincinnati or revised via the university’s Special Fee Approval Process.
This graduate metropolitan rate supersedes the former reciprocity rate for students residing in the following northern Kentucky counties: Boone, Bracken, Campbell, Carroll, Gallatin, Grant, Kenton, and Pendleton. Matriculated graduate students defined by the University of Cincinnati as residents in these counties now qualify for the metropolitan rate, which provides broader coverage of programs and serves larger numbers of potential students. All graduate and professional degree programs at the University of Cincinnati are offering the graduate metropolitan rate. Students who are eligible to receive the graduate metropolitan rate need to provide the university with a legible copy of their Kentucky driver’s license or Kentucky State ID verifying their residence in one of the above counties. Documentation of eligibility should be received before the student’s first day of class, and turned in at the One-Stop Center on the 2nd Floor of the University Pavilion, or mailed to:
