The technology fee covers the cost to acquire, install and maintain technologies that enhance the student learning experience and provide equitable access to technology resources. Examples of technology fee usage includes, but is not limited to, smart classrooms, computer labs, learning content and content management software, electronic media and library databases, distance learning hardware/software, and access to the wireless network. This fee is assessed to full-time day students (fall/spring) and graduate students (fall/spring/summer). The fee is assessed to part-time, online, evening, and weekend students (GPS) as part of their per credit hour tuition rate.
Online Course Fee
