Tuition and Fees are subject to change as the result of action by the State Legislature or the Board of Trustees.

By registering for classes, a student incurs a legal obligation to pay tuition and fees. This debt may be canceled only if the student officially withdraws from the University before the quarterly deadline published by the Registrar’s Office.  See below for additional information on tuition refunds from course and school withdrawals.
