About this programme
UT Arlington's MS in Information Systems is a STEM-designated College of Business degree that UTA states can be completed in 16 months and is offered weeknights in Arlington. Coursework covers management information systems, database management systems, systems analysis and design, data communications and business analytics. UTA states the degree prepares graduates for careers in business, industry, government and non-profit organisations. What the fee covers: the graduate non-resident (international) rate — tuition and mandatory fees combined — for a nine-month academic year, taken from UTA's official cost-of-attendance budget. It is a university-wide average, not a College of Business rate. Fee year: 2026-27. Before you budget: total credit hours are not stated on the programme page. Business differential tuition applies, so use UTA's Tuition Estimator (https://webapp.uta.edu/tuition-estimator/) rather than the university-wide planning average shown here. Living costs and insurance are extra; UTA's full graduate non-resident cost of attendance is $44,720 for 2026-27. Where the dates and requirements come from: the intake dates come from the College of Business Graduate Business Services admissions page (https://www.uta.edu/academics/schools-colleges/business/graduate-business-services/gradbiz-admissions), because this degree's own uta.edu page carries no deadline block. They are college-level, term-specific dates, so they are firmer evidence than the generic university-wide deadline module used on UTA's engineering degrees. The entry requirements come from the degree's catalog entry at https://catalog.uta.edu/business/infosystems/graduate/information-systems-ms/, which says only that an applicant whose native language is not English must submit a TOEFL or IELTS score meeting the catalog standards, and prints no number. The English scores shown are UTA's university-wide international graduate minimum, not a degree-specific bar.
