Graduate education is an investment of money and time, and it should be judged by what it returns. EUCLID (Euclid University) keeps both costs low while offering programs, faculty and a professional network grounded in its status as an intergovernmental, treaty-based institution.
What a EUCLID degree costs
Tuition is charged per credit, and a one-time International Admission Fee (IAF) of USD 850 is paid once per program. There are no separate fees for international students.
| Program | Credits | Standard rate (USD 169 / credit) | Reduced rate (USD 145 / credit)* |
|---|---|---|---|
| Master’s | 40 | USD 6,760 + 850 IAF = USD 7,610 | USD 5,800 + 850 IAF = USD 6,650 |
| PhD (typical) | 55 | USD 9,295 + 850 IAF = USD 10,145 | USD 7,975 + 850 IAF = USD 8,825 |
* The reduced rate applies to eligible ECOWAS residents and staff of intergovernmental organizations. See Tuition for current conditions.
Pay as you study
Tuition is paid course by course as studies progress, rather than as a large annual bill. Students can therefore finance their degree from their income and graduate without student debt.
Scholarships
Full scholarships are available to diplomats and civil officials of EUCLID’s Participating States. Partial awards are available to ECOWAS residents, staff of intergovernmental organizations and members of diplomatic missions to the United Nations. Details and eligibility are on the Scholarship Programs page.
Study without leaving work
All programs are delivered online and asynchronously through EUCLID’s ELEMENTS learning platform. Students keep their position and income while they study, which removes the largest hidden cost of a traditional full-time degree: one or two years of lost earnings.
Quality that carries weight
Low cost matters only if the degree is respected. EUCLID’s charter is registered in the United Nations Treaty Series (49006/49007), its programs are accredited by its Headquarters States, and it is listed in the IAU World Higher Education Database. Its degrees have been evaluated by SAQA (South Africa), ECE (United States) and the Higher Education Commissions of Pakistan and Rwanda. See Accreditation and Recognition.
Faculty include senior academics, physicians and practitioners in diplomacy, global health and sustainable development, and the curriculum integrates artificial intelligence as a working tool. See Artificial Intelligence (AI) at EUCLID.
A network that opens doors
EUCLID was founded to train officials, and its alumni include ambassadors and senior civil servants. As an observer at the UNFCCC and the IPCC and a member of academic bodies such as ACUNS and the Association of African Universities, EUCLID connects students to the institutions where international careers are built.
