Tuition & Fees - Main Campus

Tuition is charged as a flat rate for the residential campus undergraduate program where the large majority of our students attend full-time. The flat rate covers 12-18 credit hours. Students who enroll in less than 12 credit hours are charged by the credit hour.  Students who enroll in more than 18 credit hours incur an overload cost per credit for 19 and beyond credit hours. 

All other programs charge per credit hour. Graduate programs have per credit hour costs.   Fees support costs associated with services, activities and structure that support students inside and outside of the classroom.

You can use both the net price calculator or the table below to calculate tuition and fees due.
