Undergraduate Tuition & Fees

Tuition and fees for undergraduate degree-seeking and non-degree seeking students for the Academic Year 2024-2025 and Academic Year 2025-2026 can be found in the tables below. 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 enrolled.

Academic Year 2024-2025 includes the Summer 2024, Fall 2024 and Spring 2025 terms.

Academic Year 2025-2026 includes the Summer 2025, Fall 2025 and Spring 2026 terms.

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.

Regardless of the learning environment, the tuition and fees will remain the same throughout the semester. The tuition and fees are in exchange for learning, academic credit, and certain non-academic services that will be provided whether in person, in a hybrid environment, or entirely remotely, and tuition and fees amounts will remain the same in the event the mode of course delivery changes during the semester.
