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 course work each term. Students taking 12 or more hours per term pay the tuition and fees specified for full-time students.

Undergraduate students taking fewer than 12 semester hours during a regular term will be charged a prorated portion of the tuition and the general fees. The health service fee is charged students taking 9 or more hours; however, students taking fewer than 9 hours may voluntarily choose to pay the fee and enjoy the benefits of the Student Health Services.
