Addtionally, the Student Services Support Fee is charged to each degree-seeking student on the condition of enrollment on a tierd system based off of credit hours.The Student Services Support Fee is made up of three parts, but as as student, you will only see the overall fee on your bill:

For summer session, fees are half of the Fall/Spring rate. Please note that these numbers highlight fiscal year 2023.
