How is tuition calculated? |
Students pay tuition based on the number of credits received for a particular course. In other words,
the charge for a three-credit course would be three times the hourly tuition rate for that level of a
course. There is one rate per credit hour incurred for undergraduate courses regardless of the course
number depending upon the residency status. There is one rate per credit hour for graduate courses
depending upon the residency status.
|
| How are fees calculated? |
Fees associated with attendance at Oklahoma State University are charged per credit hour.
You would multiply the total number of hours you are taking by the amount of the fee to calculate your charges.
Some fees like the college technology fees or Tulsa campus-parking fee are associated with the college or
location where the classes are taught and are based upon the number of hours enrolled at that location. If you
were taking one three hour course on the Tulsa campus, you would multiply the Tulsa parking fee by three to
calculate your charges.
|
| Do students in Tulsa pay the same fees as students in Stillwater? |
Yes, with a few exceptions. Students enrolled only in Tulsa campus courses will not be charged the
"Student Health Fee" or the "Transportation Fee." Likewise, students enrolled only on the Stillwater campus will
not be charged the "Tulsa Parking Fee."
|
| How are fees approved? |
Any additions or increases in tuition and/or mandatory fees are implemented only after careful scrutiny by the
University Administration, and always in an effort to contribute to the betterment and general welfare of the
academic and campus community, as well as the individual students. The University then submits requests for
tuition and/or fee increases to the OSU A&M Regents, as well as the Oklahoma State Regents for Higher Education.
Based on guidelines set forth by the Oklahoma Legislature, the total charged by OSU for tuition and mandatory
fees must always be at or below the Big XII average. Both groups review requests and verify that the legislative
guidelines have been met, and then make the final determination of approval.
