Undergraduate Tuition & Fees

Tuition and fees for undergraduate degree-seeking and non-degree seeking students can be found in the tables below for the Academic Year 2024-2025 and Academic Year 2023-2024. Tuition and fees may be different based on the student's entering year.  Please select the entering year to view the tuition and fees billed for the term/semester enrolled.

Academic Year 2023-2024 includes the Summer 2023, Fall 2023 and Spring 2024.

The tables may not include all fees and charges a student may incur.  Students may also be billed additional fees, such as room charges, board (meal plan) charges, books, CaseCash, and/or academic course fees.  Room and board rates can be found at the University Housing website.  Please visit Common Fees and Transactions for a description of common fees including contact information.  Academic course fees can be found in the Schedule of Classes.  To explore undergraduate degree program information, please visit the Undergraduate Advising Support Office website.
