Undergraduate & Graduate Cost Information
Tuition and Fees – 2024-2025 Academic Year
Tuition and fee rates are subject to Board of Trustees approval each year. The approval for the academic year typically takes place in late June or early July. 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 see the Registrar’s Office webpage for more information.
