Tuition and Financial Aid
Attending Columbia Business School represents a major financial commitment. An MBA is an investment in one’s future with a superb cost-benefit ratio, but it is an investment that must be planned for carefully.
Tuition and Fees
Tuition covers the cost of the program, books, meals (breakfast, lunch, and afternoon snack) on all class days, conference center accommodations during residence weeks, and other resources, as well as residence and meals during the week-long international seminar in the second year.
Students must purchase a laptop computer for the program, pay their own airfare for the International Seminar, and arrange their own travel throughout the program.
Total Executive MBA tuition and fees for May 2013, August 2013, and January 2014 entry: $168,480.
Tuition rates for the School’s partner programs can be found on the EMBA-Global website.
Payment Schedule
Students are billed automatically by Columbia University Student Financial Services. Payment is by default due at the start of each term, though a monthly payment plan is available. Learn more about billing for Executive MBA students.
Financial Aid
Columbia Business School’s Financial Aid Office helps students understand the options available for financing their degrees. Student loans may assist with the cost of the Executive MBA Program for students with partial or no financial sponsorship from their employer.
