12-Month TESOL Fees and Financing

12-Month Master of Arts in Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages (TESOL) 

While your courses originate with the Watson College of Education faculty, the program is administered through the College of Extended and Global Education (CEGE). This page presents some important administrative details about your program.

Course Cycles and Fees

Each semester is split into two 8-week sessions. During Fall semester students will be enrolled in 2 courses for Fall A and 2 courses during Fall B. 

Textbooks and any administrative fees are not included in the program tuition fee.

Drop and Fee Refund Policies

If you need to drop a course, contact your Program Specialist by email. The date on your email will be the date of your request. The Program Specialist will process a course change on your behalf. Faculty cannot drop you from courses.

A course dropped on or before the census date will not remain on your academic record. A course dropped after census requires instructor and Department Chair approval, and will be recorded on your record with the appropriate grade. See the CSUSB Office of the Registrar webpage for grade details. Contact us at any time if you have questions. 

Your 12-Month MA TESOL program follows the CEGE tuition refund policy, which differs from the campus policy. Please be mindful of dates in the chart on the Information for Admitted Students page, linked at the blue button to the right.

100% refund, less $25 administrative fee, if course drop is requested before state date

65% refund, less $25 administrative fee, if course drop is requested on the first day of class through census date

No refund after the census date

Payments are due seven days before the first day of class. Late payments are subject to a $25 late fee.
