2025-26 Traditional Undergraduate Costs
NOTES: Costs are the same for in-state and out-of-state students. Some courses and programs have additional fees and can be found in the Catalog. An overload fee of $1,090 per credit hour is charged for hours of enrollment in excess of 18 credit hours. Housing rate varies based on room style and residence. The cost of books will depend on your major, course load, and availability of used textbooks but typically average $1,300 per year.
Federal regulations require disclosure of the cost per credit hour using the following formula: This is determined by multiplying the annual tuition rate of $39,150 by four and then dividing by the total number of credit hours required for an undergraduate degree, which is 128 hours. The cost per credit hour is estimated to be $1,223.

Tuition for 1-11 hours of enrollment: $1,090 per credit hour
