It also has a business school, a school of design and visual arts and a school of engineering and applied science .But more than sixty percent of courses are taught through the Arts and Sciences program. The new school year that begins this fall will cost about fifty thousand dollars for undergraduates. That includes twelve months of living expenses estimated at twenty thousand dollars. Graduate tuition differs by program. Tuition for the Master of Social Work program, for example, will cost twenty-seven thousand dollars in the coming year. The Master of Business Administration program will cost about 38,000 dollars. The university offers financial assistance to international students, including first-year students, but says its resources are limited. Scholarships are available. The university also offers a monthly payment plan to spread out the cost of tuition. It offers loan programs. International students in the United States generally cannot receive federal student loans. But they may be able to take out private loans, as many American students do. Washington University in Saint Louis was named Eliot Seminary when it opened in 1853. Later the name was changed to honor the first American president, George Washington.
