I ask this because dont you just pay for the classes you take? Like lets say tuition was 6000. Student A takes 4 classes fall semester.   Student B take 2 classes fall semester. Would they still both pay 6000?  Or would one pay more?  Do you just pay for the classes you take? How does that work?

Replies ScholarshipExpert Posted at 7:24 pm on Feb. 21, 2008 don't forget the other fees, like athletic fee, student union fee, parking permit, health fee... I pay about $600 in fees per semester. With 4 classes and books it runs about $2200 without housing or meals (in-state tuition). Students outside Florida pay about 4x that amount. tscott 87 Posted at 6:20 pm on Feb. 21, 2008 Look at that college's website and you'll be able to figure out. It will probably be either per semester hour you take, or a set amount you will pay for however many class hours you take (up to a certain amount of hours).  Along with that comes class/lab fees, books, food/dorm costs, and transportation.  Those costs can be a lot more than you would think... just be prepared. dreamweaver Posted at 4:09 am on Feb. 20, 2008 You pay so much for each class and then they add class fees that include supplies and such. When they give you the average tuition fee, it's usually a full time student taking 18 (might be 16) credit hours. Just make sure to read the fine print. PimpMyHoes Posted at 11:23 pm on Feb. 13, 2008 Here its just a flat tuition rate... there might be the option of going to school part time for 5th year athletes but besides that I doubt it. You have to take at least four classes, and can take a max of 5.5. Everyone pays the same tuition. penguincube Posted at 4:36 pm on Feb. 13, 2008 Yeah, there is a cost per credit hour.  Most classes are three credits, with some classes and most labs being one credit.  The tuition cost for a semester is based on an average amount of credits.  Both students from your example would pay different prices. Innuendo Girl Posted at 2:52 pm on Feb. 13, 2008 It's per credit. They usually estimate it by using a standard 16 credit semester. rinni Posted at 2:51 pm on Feb. 13, 2008 There are part-time and full-time tuitions when you go to a University. If you were to go to a Community college then you pay per class. All 7 previous replies displayed.
