Supplemental Course Fees

Supplemental course fees may be assessed on individual courses to cover the cost of specialized supplies, equipment, or services for instructional purposes that are provided by the University to all students enrolled in the course and are in addition to routine instructional expenses. Such courses and fees are identified in the catalog and class schedule and will be assessed at the time of registration. Students should also be aware that other courses may require the student to purchase specialized materials. The Provost is authorized to approve additional supplemental section fees needed during the year for selected courses.

Calculating Required Student Fees

Multiply the number of credit hours for each course by the appropriate per credit hour fee based on the tuition plan chosen and the level, type, location,and delivery of the course. Sum the basic fees for all courses, and add the student services fee appropriate for the total number of credit hours enrolled that are assessed this fee. Add applicable supplemental course and/or section fees.
