Tuition and fees are charged per credit for each course you register for. Your cost per credit depends on several factors, including your residency status and whether your course is offered during the day, in the evening or online\/hybrid.<\/p>\n

Tuition and the college service fee may not represent your entire bill; additional course-related or miscellaneous fees may apply.<\/p>\n

Students who audit a course are charged the full tuition and fees; no reductions are available.<\/p>\n

All fees are subject to change after July 1.<\/strong><\/p>\n
