At the outset the school offered one degree, an MBA ([[Master of Business Administration]]) that was taught via a [[smartphone]] [[Mobile app|app]] and/or a [[website]]. <ref name="auto2">{{Cite web|url=https://www.nopaymba.com/first-truly-free-mba-degree/|title=The First Truly Free MBA Degree | No-Pay MBA|first=Laurie|last=Pickard}}</ref> The MBA was unique in that students were not charged a fee.<ref name="auto2"/> The MBA degree was free because the school would charge recruitment fees to employers.<ref name="auto2"/> |

By August 2021, Quantic no longer offered any no-fee degree courses, with the MBA and the EMBA being both subject to a tuition fee of $950 USD per month over the 13-month duration of the program. The School continued to award merit-based and need-based [[Scholarship|scholarships]] assessed on a case-by-case basis, which reduced the tuition fees for successful applicants. Separately, Quantic may offer discounts on tuition for defined groups and periods of time. Applicants may also be eligible for tuition reimbursement by their employer. <ref>{{Cite web|url=https://quantic.edu/tuition/|title=Quantic School of Business and Technology | The Modern MBA|website=QuanticSchool}}</ref> |
