‡ Reporting standards not met; fewer than three respondents.
1 Average and median tuition and required fees for private institutions were calculated using rates reported for out-of-state students.
2 Three 2-year institutions reported graduate-level tuition and/or fees in 2004–05.
NOTE: Tuition and required fees are average institutional charges, not average amounts paid by students (i.e., charges are not weighted by enrollment). Institutions that report tuitions by program are not included. U.S. service academies are not included. Averages and medians for first-professional programs were calculated based on only those institutions that offer degrees at the first-professional level. Medians were calculated using SAS, Version 8, Proc Univariate.
