Tuition and fee rates are subject to Board of Trustees approval each year, typically in late June. Undergraduate tuition and fees are calculated on a per credit basis for part-time (less than 12 credits) students and is charged at a flat rate for full-time (12-18 credits) students. Students who are registered for additional credits above 18 will be assessed for the appropriate per-credit rate for each credit over 18. In-state and out-of-state residency status is determined at the point of Admission. In order to change your residency status, you must provide proof of residency to the Registrar’s Office. Please visit the Registrar’s Office webpage for more information.
Detailed information about many of our fees can be found on the Fee Descriptions and Course Fee Cost Information pages.
