TUITION AND COURSE FEES
Please check the Bursar's webpage for current tuition rates. All graduate tuition for six hours and below (per semester) is charged at the resident rate. Non-resident students can therefore pay resident rates if they take no more than six hours per semester; note, however, that if a student takes seven hours or more, ALL the hours for that semester will be charged at the non-resident rate. All summer tuition hours are charged at the resident rate, no matter how many hours a student is enrolled for.
The tuition rates quoted above refer to the charge per credit hour assessed by the university. Please be aware that any reference to "tuition waivers" being covered by assistantships or other financial aid will most likely NOT cover special course fees in addition to the per-hour tuition rate. Even if the waiver is for "tuition and fees," that refers only to the Graduate and Professional Student Association fee, not to special course fees. All courses in the College of Fine Arts have a Fine Arts Technology Fee of $6 per credit hour. All courses with a Music (MUS), Applied Music (APMS), or Music Education (MUSE) prefix are also subject to a $5 per credit hour fee that goes toward maintaining special equipment necessary for music instruction; a Piano Maintenance Fee is also assessed at the rate of $5 per credit hour fee. Special fees, depending on the needs of the course, may also be charged, and are noted in the Schedule of Classes each semester. All students enrolled in Applied Music pay an applied music fee of $75 for one semester credit hour and $150 for two or more semester credit hours. All of the special course fees described here are in addition to tuition, and are subject to change.
