Note: Students living on campus are required to contract with
UNCG for room and board. Students living off campus pay only tuition
and required fees.
The
tuition and academic fees paid by UNCG students only partially cover
the cost of the education they receive. The remaining costs are met
by funds from the State of North Carolina, from the UNCG Excellence
Fund, and from alumni, friends, corporations, foundations, and the
federal government. Undergraduate tuition and fees per credit hour
for the 2002-2003 academic year are indicated in the tables on the
next page. Costs are indicated for one semester as well as annually.
Tuition & Fees for Part-Time Students
For tuition and fee purposes, a part-time undergraduate
student is defined as one taking fewer than 12 semester hours of coursework
each semester. Students taking 12 or more hours per semester pay the
tuition and fees specified for full-time students.
Undergraduate students taking fewer than 12 semester hours during
a regular semester will be charged a prorated portion of the tuition
and the general fee. The health service fee is charged students taking
9 or more hours who live off campus. However, such a student may voluntarily
choose to pay the fee and enjoy the benefits of the Student Health
Services. All on-campus students pay the health service fee. See rate
table on following page for details.
25%
Tuition Surcharge for Undergraduates
The General Assembly has instituted a twenty-five percent
(25%) tuition surcharge (Section 89 (b), Senate Bill 27,1993 Session)
which became effective fall semester 1994 and applies to all NEW undergraduates
seeking a baccalaureate degree. Specifically, it states,
The
Board of Governors of The University of North Carolina shall ensure
that procedures are established that are necessary to impose a twenty-five
percent (25%) tuition surcharge on students who take more than 140
degree credit hours to complete a baccalaureate degree in a four-year
program or more than one hundred ten percent (110%) of the credit
hours necessary to complete a baccalaureate degree in any program
officially designated by the Board of Governors as a five-year program.
The calculation of these credit hours taken at a constituent institution
or accepted for transfer shall exclude hours earned through the College
Board's Advanced Placement or CLEP examinations, through institutional
advanced placement or course validation, or through summer term or
extension programs.
Students
Subject to the Surcharge
The tuition surcharge will be applied to new undergraduate
students enrolled for the first time in Fall 1994 in a degree program
at UNCG as follows:
(1) For students earning a first baccalaureate degree in a program
that requires no more than 128 credit hours, the surcharge shall be
applied to all hours in excess of 140.
(2) For students earning a first baccalaureate degree in a UNC Board
of Governors Board-approved program that requires more than 128 credit
hours, the surcharge shall be applied to all hours that exceed 110
percent of the credit hours required for the degree. Such programs
include those that have been officially designated by the Board of
Governors as five-year programs as well as those involving double
majors, or combined bachelor's/master's degrees.
(3) For students earning a baccalaureate degree other than their first,
the surcharge shall be applied to all hours that exceed 110 percent
of the minimum additional credit hours needed to earn the additional
baccalaureate degree. The minimum additional credit hours will be
determined by the degree audit performed by the Office of Student
Academic Services during the first semester a student is enrolled
in the second or other baccalaureate degree.
Students seeking a second baccalaureate degree are required to take
31 credit hours of residency at UNCG.
The surcharge will be imposed in the fall or spring semester and in
all subsequent semesters where a student's cumulative credit hour
total exceeds the threshold. The surcharge does not apply to required
fees.
Hours INCLUDED in Tuition Surcharge Hours:
The undergraduate credit hours to be counted in the calculation
of the tuition surcharge include:
(1) all semester (fall and spring semester) academic credit hours
attempted (includes repeated coursework and failed coursework); and
(2) all transfer credit hours accepted by UNCG.
Hours EXCLUDED from Tuition Surcharge Hours:
(1) College Board's Advanced Placement (AP) credit;
(2) College Level Examination Program (CLEP) or similar programs'
credits;
(3) credit earned through any UNCG advanced placement, course validation
or similar procedure;
(4) credit earned in summer sessions at UNCG or another UNC institution;
and
(5) credit earned from an extension division of any UNC institution,
including UNCG.
Students will be informed of the Tuition Surcharge Hours earned each
semester and cumulatively in their tuition billing.
Students may contact the Office of Student Academic Services to obtain
current information on their credit hours.
