We believe this program offers educators exciting opportunities for professional development, leading to a Master of Science Degree in Educational Psychology.
Individuals applying to the MSPE program must apply to both the UW-Madison Graduate School and to the Department of Educational Psychology. While you can complete much of this application online, you will need to forward some items to the appropriate departments through the mail. It is strongly recommended that you send in all mailed items at one time, making sure that the items are in separate envelopes, as indicated.
The tuition and fees for MSPE are:
Independent Study (1 credit)
If you are applying for financial aid you may be required to enroll for a minimum
of 4 credits. Because the MSPE courses in Fall and Spring are 3 credits each you
can arrange with your instructor to sign up for 1 credit of Independent Study so
that you meet that requirement. Ask the Financial Aid office for more information.
Information on financial aid is available through the UW-Madison Student
Financial Services Office.
Students are responsible for purchasing required materials, such as a
book of readings or computer disks, for their courses. Instructors will make information
available to MSPE students upon enrollment.
The fees for summer classes are paid on a per-credit basis. For example,
Summer, 2009, Wisconsin resident MSPE students enrolled for 6 graduate credits and
paid $2506 in tuition. Fees are subject to change.
Some scholarships may be available. Check with the Department of Educational Psychology.
