Costs and Financial Aid
B.A./M.D. Program Tuition Rates
B.A./M.D. program tuition rates are assessed each year and are based on two criteria. Students in the program are responsible for paying tuition based on their residency status and their year within the program. All rates are approximate and do not include additional university fees or program expenses. Explore official undergraduate and professional program tuition rates for this academic year.
Cost of Attendance
The cost of attendance is the combination of a student’s direct costs (tuition and university fees) and indirect costs incurred while attending UMKC as an individual student. It is the estimate, or “budget,” that UMKC gives a student to budget for each year.
The cost of attendance budget categories are divided into room and board, transportation, equipment, books, personal expenses, loan fees and tuition. Finally, the most significant differentiating factors in the estimated cost of attendance for B.A./M.D. students includes the student’s residency status (in-state, regional, or out-of-state) and their year in the program (years 1, year 2, years 3-6).
Financial Aid and Scholarships
The UMKC Office of Student Financial Aid and Scholarships can provide additional information regarding financial aid programs, including federal and state grants and loan programs, as well as the types of expenses and assistance that might be available to you.
In general, students interested in merit- or need-based financial aid may be eligible for various loans, grants and/or other financial aid programs. To be considered for such programs, a student must complete the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA). The FAFSA is available through the UMKC Office of Student Financial Aid and Scholarships or online at the Federal Student Aid website. The priority date for filing the FAFSA is Feb.1.
