Graduate School Staff

Our programs offer a flat tuition rate allowing graduate students (both online and out-of-state) to pay the same price regardless of their residency. Each year, over 90 graduate assistantships with stipends of $10,000 per year or $5,000 per semester are available. Graduate assistantships allow you to further engage in the teaching, research and service efforts of the University.

Paying for Graduate School

MSU offers personalized advising services and academic planning. Staff members in the Graduate School Advising Center facilitate navigation of the financial services process, assist with the completion of required academic forms and help inform you of university resources and services. The professional advisors meet one-on-one with students by appointment, drop-in, phone and email. The objective of the advising center is to develop a roadmap for graduate student success as they pursue their academic and personal goals at Morehead State University.

Flexibility & Convenience

In addition to offering master's degrees that may be completed in one year, a number of our programs may be completed completely online, like our online MBA. Because convenience and ease of access to students are important, traditional classroom graduate courses are offered at our regional centers in addition to our main campus.
