Graduate tuition
for a full-time student is approximately $4,230 a year for in-state
students ($235.00 per credit hour), and approximately $10,854 a year
for out-of-state students ($603.00 per credit hour). Students may
enroll in the program on a full-time or part-time basis. Students
must be full-time and registered for 9 credit hours to be eligible
to receive assistantship support.
The Department of Sociology and Criminal Justice at Old Dominion
University supports several teaching and research assistantship
positions. The Department of Sociology at Norfolk State University has
limited money available for tuition support. In return for the financial
support, graduate students work between 10 and 20 hours per week for
faculty members depending on the assistantship awarded. Assistants work
from the beginning of each semester through exam week or an equivalent
period of time. Along with the rest of the faculty, they enjoy a break
at Thanksgiving, Christmas, and Spring Break.
To apply, submit an Application for Graduate Financial Assistance
(available online or in the application packet or from the Office
of Admissions) to the Graduate
Program Director no later than February 15. Full-time graduate
assistants are considered in-state students for tuition purposes.
Out-of-state graduate assistants may be eligible for a Graduate Tuition
Unfunded Scholarship and should consult the Graduate
Program Director at Old Dominion University.
Students interested in other forms of financial aid such as loans or
need-based work study should contact the Old Dominion University Office
of Student Financial Aid, 126 Old Administration Building, or
call (757) 683-3683.
