Summer AOEP Tuition Rates and Payment
Summer school tuition for programs offered during both summer sessions will be charged separately to student accounts in mid-April 2010. Tuition payment is due on the program's final payment deadline, as indicated on the program's "Course, Payment Schedule, and Cancellation Policy" form. If your program's final payment deadline precedes the posting of the tuition charge on your student account, you still need to pre-pay the tuition at that time, even if the tuition charge does not yet appear on your student account. Please consult the tuition rates below to calculate the tuition cost of your summer AOEP.
2010 Summer Tuition Rates (subject to change):
- $122 per undergraduate in-state credit hour
- $142 per undergraduate out-of-state credit hour
- $154 per graduate in-state credit hour
- $174 per graduate out-of-state credit hour
