Executive MBA tuition disclosure
Department of Education Cash Management Regulation §668.164(c)(2) requires institutions with programs that include the costs of books and supplies as part of tuition and fees to separately disclose those costs and explain why including them is in the best financial interests of students.
The University of Iowa provides books, cases, articles and other course materials to students in the Executive MBA Program. These materials are provided to the students prior to the start of each term. The total cost of books and course materials is approximately $2,800 per student over the 4 term program. While students could purchase these materials directly from the vendor it is usually at a higher cost. For instance, Harvard Business Publishing cases cost 67% more when purchased directly by students.
However, each student has the right to opt out of the all-inclusive tuition rate and purchase the materials on their own. Students will receive tuition credit/reimbursement up to $700 per term if they choose to purchase their own materials. A student who takes this option does so for the entire academic year (i.e., you can’t opt in or out by term). Students who opt out are responsible for locating and purchasing all materials prior to class deadlines and are responsible for paying all copyright charges according to current copyright laws. Students must present original receipts for books and other course materials in order to receive the credit/reimbursement.
