Tuition and Fees

We believe that a university degree should be as accessible and affordable as possible. That’s why we’ve created a few unique ways to save you both time and money.

For purposes of tuition assessment, ¹û¶³´«Ã½ defines a full-time course load as 12-19 credits per term. The tuition for these terms will remain at the full-time tuition rate. Student’s taking less than 12 course credits in a term or more than 19 course credits will be assessed for tuition based on a per credit hour rate. The per credit hour rate will be $700.00 per credit hour for full priced programs and $500.00 per credit hour for reduced priced programs. All term fees will also be applicable. Please contact the Student Accounts Office for further information on tuition.

Please review all of the information below, as well as the tuition and fees for your specific degree via the links provided, as they are not the same for all associate, bachelor’s, master’s, online and per credit-designated programs. For our programs, an academic year is approximately 9 months long and consists of 3 terms.
