Summer Semester

Taking courses over the summer is one of the best ways to catch up or to get your degree faster. Tuition doesn't cost any more than during a regular semester. There are hundreds of summer courses available, so it's possible to be enrolled part time or full time from home (or anywhere, really)!

Summer Tuition

Tuition for summer courses is paid by the hour (at the part time rate) and is the same for courses during spring and fall semesters. For example, for a three-hour undergraduate level course at the in-state tuition rate of $512/hour, the cost of tuition is $1536, plus any additional fees associated with the course. Please note: For further questions on your individual Summer Semester costs, please contact Financial Aid or the Bursar’s Office. You can find full details at the Bursar's office website.

The Office of Financial Aid provides the full breakdown of the estimated cost to attend.
