Tuition and Other Expenses at the Institution (IPEDS, 2005)
Tuition and other expenses at Emory University.
	Emory University
Graduate Tuition and Fees
Full-time students: Tuition ?	$28,800
Many students do not pay full tuition. See the information on tuition remission.
Full-time students: Fees ?	$434
The fixed sum charged to students for items not covered by tuition and required of such a large proportion of all students that the student who does NOT pay the charge is an exception
Part-time students: Cost per credit hour	$1,200
Tuition Remission for the Program † (SED, 2000–2004) ?
Students often do not pay the full amount of tuition. For example, teaching and research assistantships often provide for remission of most or all of a graduate student’s tuition. 0% remission means that the student pays full tuition; 100% remission means that the student pays no tuition.
	Chemistry
Median tuition remission	83%

Reputation (NRC, 1995) ?
In 1993, the National Research Council asked faculty members to rate the educational effectiveness of doctoral programs at other universities on a scale of 0 ("Not Effective") to 5 ("Extremely Effective"). (Note that the resulting effectiveness ratings were found to be almost perfectly correlated (r=0.99) with ratings of "faculty quality," which suggests that the ratings may simply reflect the overall reputation of a program rather than any specific educational achievements.)
	Chemistry
Perceived educational effectiveness	Reasonably effective
Perceived effectiveness on a scale of 0–5	3.5
(0 = "Not effective", 5 = "Extremely effective")
