Part-Time Academic Fees
What does it mean to be a part-time student?
You're considered a part-time student if you're enrolled in:
- less than 70% of the required credits in your semester, and
- less than 66.67% (2/3) of the required courses in your semester.
How are part-time fees calculated?
Part-time students are charged tuition and ancillary fees on a per-credit basis.
Here is the formula used to calculate part-time tuition and fees: (tuition fee per credit x number of credits) + (ancillary fee per credit x number of credits) + program fees = tuition and fees
Example:
If you are enrolled in a course that is part of a fee-regulated program and is worth three (3) credits, you would calculate your tuition and fees for that course as follows: ($87.36 x 3) + ($39.54 x 3) + $30.00 = $410.70
