Tuition and Fees
Our tuition is charged per course, not per credit, and depends on the credit status you choose. Thus, the tuition rates listed in course descriptions reflect the cost of the course. Tuition for undergraduate- and graduate-credit courses ranges from $650 to $1,975. Registration requires full payment of tuition and a nonrefundable $50 registration fee each term.
