Average cost for graduate school in mathematics in the US? What do you think my

[arulupinaustin]

chances are? I am an international student, an undergraduate in biochemistry and mathematics in a US university. I have a GPA of 3.95 right now (I'm a second semester junior right now) and it's likely to stay around that figure. I have gone beyond my majors and have taken a variety of classes outside of them, and have been involved in a variety of extra-curricular activities.

Recently, I have discovered that I am quite frankly running out of money: it's a bit iffy as to whether I will have anything substantial left after graduation. Since I have every intention of going on to math grad school I was wondering if anyone had any idea how much math grad school would cost me? The sooner I know the better. Thanks!

If your record is really good (and you speak good English), you will probably be appointed as a graduate teaching assistant along with your admission to graduate school. That generally means you will teach, or assist in teaching, one lower-division class along with your own graduate studies. At most schools that means your tuition will be free and you will get a VERY small salary, just barely enough to live on, while you are in graduate school.
