Course registration and payment deadlines
Once registered in a course, you are considered to be in attendance and are responsible for tuition fees in full unless you drop the course online via REGIS or by submitting a Registration/Course Change form. You will not be automatically dropped from a course if you do not attend.

Tuition rates
Tuition rates are effective from May 1 through April 30 each year. This includes both on-campus and distance education courses, both credit and audit rates. Courses that begin after May 1 will be subject to the tuition rates for the following year, even if you register for a course prior to May. Details regarding the costs of tuition and other fees can be found in the Admissions and Finance section.
Tuition discounts
We offer a number of tuition benefits for students and their spouses. Visit our tuition discounts page to see if you qualify for any of the benefits.
Student Fees
In addition to tuition, there are other Student Fees payable throughout your program. For the full table of fees, see the Costs page in the Admissions & Finance section. For costs pertaining to the MALTS program, see the MALTS FAQ page.
In the Fall or Winter Terms, these fees are charged automatically if you register for 3 or more credit hours. If you register for 3 or more audit hours, you can opt in to Student Fees when you register.
In the Summer Sessions, if you are a returning student and you register for at least 3 audit hours (or at least 3 combined audit and credit hours) you can opt in to Student Fees.

You can opt in by submitting the U-Pass Opt-In form for the appropriate term (see left sidebar).
