The cost is determined by each student’s pathway, as everyone has unique variables. It is best to make a one-on-one appointment with a Degree Completion Advisor to go through which pathway fits best for you.
After meeting with an advisor, your path may entail applying for readmission to UCR, and in some cases a pathway through UCR University Extension via Concurrent Enrollment or University Credit Courses (UCC) may be in order. There is also a chance a certificate program may be your preferred path.
Below are links to UCR financial aid resources and an overview of costs associated with UCR University Extension pathways.
