TUITION AND FEES SCHEDULE

Fiscal Year 2011-2012

For the current Tuition & Fees Schedule, including on-campus and off-campus rates, please visit the Enrollment Services

Full vs. Part Time

Full time study is defined as taking a total of 8 or more credits per semester. Also, the per credit cost for off-campus classes only applies to part-time study. Please note that on-line hybrid classes are charged the on-campus rate, regardless of how often and where the face-to- face meetings occur. If you choose to enroll full-time (9+ credits) the full-time tuition rate will apply, regardless of whether or not classes are taken on or off campus or as on-line hybrid classes.

For example: If you take 6 credits on campus and 3 credits off campus, because you are taking a cumulative 9 credits, the full-time tuition rate will apply.

Special Tuition Rates

The School of Library and Information Science has negotiated a special tuition rate for employees of certain public libraries, schools and organizations in the Washington, DC area. The special rate is equal to one half of the current Fall on-campus, part-time tuition rate, regardless of whether the classes are on campus or off or when they are being taken..

Technology Fee

Beginning in Spring 2012, the University will begin charging all SLIS students a $25 technology fee each semester. This fee will go towards purchasing licenses for the databases and software used in SLIS classes, as well as providing students access to the equipment needed for class projects in digitization and other technology intensive subspecialties.
