 Graduate and First-Professional Student Borrowing
For students attending public institutions on a part-time and/or part-year basis, the average tuition and fees in 1992-93 ($1,600 at the master's level and $2,300 at the doctoral level) were relatively modest for someone working and earning their average incomes ($35,200 for master's students and $32,200 for doctoral students) (compendium tables 1.11 and 1.6).
