Net Price Calculator

Tuition

Full-time undergraduate tuition covers 12 to 18 credits per semester. Course loads of fewer than 12 credits are billed at the part-time per credit rate. Course loads beyond 18 credits are billed at the full-time rate, plus an additional per-credit charge.

Required Fees

The Student Activity Fee is mandatory for full-time students. It covers the cost of activities provided by the Student Government Association (SGA) and student clubs on campus.

Room & Board

This figure is initially based on a double room in the First-Year Village and a 19-meals-per-week dining plan. Other selections may impact your net price.

Indirect Costs (Financial aid COA/Cost of Attendance)

Discretionary costs that the student will incur but are not billed directly by the school. (e.g. books and supplies, transportation, or miscellaneous expenses.) These amounts are averages and individual costs will vary from student to student. These costs are broken down on any financial aid offers, and are available for review on the financial aid policy page.

Graduate Student Tuition & Fees

Tuition & Fees are a per-credit rate, and will vary depending on your program. Please see the Tuition and Fees page for details. In general, students need to be in at least 4.5 credits to be considered half-time. Most students average about 6 credits per semester (Fall, Spring, Summer). To be considered full-time requires at least 9 credits. Additional information for graduate students is available on the financial aid policy page.
