scholarships - 2/3 tuition or full tuition

the scholarships say they are for 2/3 tuition or full tuition ...

does this include "fees" as well?

if not, how much are "fees?"

Fees are not included. I just checked my son's account to get some figires. It's $70 for the Arts and Science fee, $49 for the arts and science technology fee and $63 for the honors college facilities/technology fee. His outside scholarships more than covered those fees.

Fees are calculated based on the number of credits and which college(s) are operating the courses. Some colleges (like Honors) don't charge as much and online classes may not charge anything at all. The fees are listed at College Course Fees . Since I'm taking some graduate business classes in the near future, I'll be paying $227 for each of those classes in fees. For undergrad classes though, expect $7-$20 per credit at current rates.

My younger son is a double major (chemical engineering and biology); so he's got a lot of fees, because he has a lot of labs.

He's taking 17 credits this semester; he has 6 classes (some are 1 and 2 credits); but those are also charging fees.

Here's a copy of his fees for this semester..

ARTS & SCIENCE COLLEGE FEE $130.00

ENGINEERING COLLEGE FEE $40.00

A & S FACIL./TECH COLLEGE FEE $91.00

ENGINEER FACIL./TECH COLL FEE $40.00

This son has the Presidential scholarship (full tuition); the Engineering scholarship ($2500 per year); and an outside scholarship from H's work ($2000 per year). Therefore, I can't really complain about the fees.

At first I wondered why he doesn't have an honors college fee, since he's in honors. But, then I realized that he isn't taking a UHP class this semester. He's taking a departmental honors class, instead.

I assume that older son's fees are similar.

SeaTide...yikes...grad level class fees! Well, I shouldn't be surprised. Grad classes always cost more money.
