Re: Seeking input re: fee structure and joint-degree diploma

Hello,

 

For The Graduate School at MSU Bozeman:

 

We charge the general graduation fee of $40 one time per degree and charge an auditing fee of $20 every time a student applies to graduate (even for the same degree over and over again). If a student applies for more than one degree (say a masters and then a doctoral degree) we would charge the $40 again.

 

Best,

Lauren

Dear MACRAO colleagues,

 

I’m seeking your input and guidance in two areas:

 

  1. Could you please let us know what and how your institution charges for the following?  We’re trying to meet a deadline of 10/21/2020 to submit any changes/updates to our current fee practices:
    1. Transcript fee
    2. Graduation fee
  1. Program administrators from our Master of Public Administration (MPA) and Master of Public Health (MPH) have inquired about processing a joint-degree diploma (e.g. listing both degrees on ONE diploma).  They claim that students wish for this type of documentation.  My staff and I were perplexed by the request.  Since they’re two separate degrees, I don’t see how or why we would do such a thing.  Does anyone have any information or insight about this?  My hunch is that students don’t want to submit two different graduation applications.  Hence, one of the many reasons we’re reconsidering our graduation application fee structure and process. 

 

Thanks in advance for your help!

 

Best regards,

Maria
