How much do the DEDP courses cost?

Please note: DEDP Personal Prices changed on March 13, 2021. Learners who had previously received a personal price of $100 or $250 USD in the past have been automatically reissued new prices to fit the current scheme. Please reach out to us if you have any questions.

The Data, Economics, and Design of Policy MicroMasters program offers personalized pricing. The price of each course is determined for each learner based on the learner's income. As part of the DEDP Program enrollment process, you will be prompted to enter your financial information via your MITx Online Dashboard to receive a personalized course price.

If you need to update your financial information to receive a new personal price, please reach out to DEDP MicroMasters Support at [e-mail], and we will reset your financial calculator.

Here is the current DEDP Personal Pricing scheme:

Annual Household Income — Price per DEDP Course

• $0 to less than $25,000 USD — $250 USD per course
• $25,000 to less than $50,000 USD — $350USD per course
• $50,000 to less than $75,000 USD — $500 USD per course
• Over $75,000 USD — $1,000 USD per course

In addition to the personalized price, a limited number of $100 course USD price coupons will be awarded by lottery each term to a few learners who earn less than $10,000 USD per year. A learner may only win one coupon, applicable to one course, per term. For more information, please see the FAQ section About the $100 Course Price Coupon Lottery.

Please note: You are welcome to start the DEDP program by taking courses for free on the Audit track. You can re-enroll in the course as a paid learner in a future term.
