ROKS Costs

Tuition is the same as fall semester on MSU's main campus. You can use this handy online calculator to figure out the total cost of enrollment if you are either a currently enrolled or lifelong student.

There is an additional lab and activity fee of $300, which covers the cost of the many field trips you'll take, as well as supplies for your professional experience (internship).

Housing costs are comparable to living on campus.

Scholarships (up to $2000) and jobs are available!!

To apply for scholarships or jobs check the appropriate box(es) on the ROKS application form.

As a ROKS student, you'll live in apartments located near the shore of scenic Gull Lake.  The KBS cafeteria serves 17 delicious meals per week, and Vegetarian options are available at every meal.  ("Great Food" is one of the most common student comments on evaluations!)

Early application saves you money! 
The first 10 students who apply and are accepted into the program will receive a $500 rebate on room and board.

What if I'm not an MSU student?

That's ok! You just enroll as a Lifelong Education Student. Contact ROKS for more info about how to enroll.
