Questions Purdue Global Why ask this question?
Tuition and Fees
What other fees would I be responsible for?
Per-term resource fee and
program-specific fees,
where applicable.
Some schools charge application, graduation, and
other fees that can add up to hundreds of dollars.
Is the projected tuition cost contingent upon taking
additional credits or courses per term?
No. Tuition does not vary depending
on the number of courses or credits.
Some schools may require you to take additional
courses per term to qualify for a scholarship or
special tuition rate. Be sure you understand the
number of credits, and courses, you are committing
to and that you can handle the workload.
Are books included in the cost
of tuition?
Yes (undergraduate non-ASN/
Pre-BSN nursing) programs
Typically, books are not included in the cost of
tuition. According to the College Board, book costs
average $1,200 per year.
Is there a dierent tuition cost for lower-level
(100-200) vs. upper-level (300-400) courses?
No Some schools charge more for upper-level courses.
Does the price stated on the website assume a
specic number of prior college credits?
No. Our Net Price Calculator allows
you to estimate the number of credits/
courses you will bring into your
degree plan and customize the cost
of tuition accordingly.
Some quoted prices may assume a minimum
amount of prior learning and/or prerequisite
courses were previously completed.
Academic Requirements
Is the school on a quarter or semester hour system? Quarter
Most schools charge per quarter credit hour or
semester credit hour; some charge a at fee per
term. If you are comparing the cost of quarter
credits hours vs. semester credit hours, be sure to
multiply the quarter hour price by 1.5 to ensure
you are making an even comparison.
How many elective credits are available
in the program?
Up to 33% of the credits for bachelors
degrees and up to 39% of the credits
for associates degrees
A large pool of open electives may allow you to
take advantage of all of your prior learning. Check
how much of your chosen program allows you to
use transfer credits to fulll open electives.
I hope to save as much as possible through my
prior learning credits. Does the number of credits
stated for the program assume I have taken all
prerequisites?
Only our degree completion programs
(such as RN-to-BSN) require you to
complete prerequisites. You can view
the full list of program requirements
in our Catalog.
Read the degree plan carefully to see if you are
required to complete prerequisites. Not all prior
credits map to all degree programs. You may incur
additional cost, and time, if you are required to
take unexpected courses. When in doubt, ask
questions.
Speed to Degree
Does the school project how long it takes to nish
my degree? How does this compare to other schools?
Yes. We will also provide an estimate
based on your transfer credits and the
number of courses you plan to take
per term.
Be sure that you understand how many courses
per term you are required to take to meet the
completion time stated for your degree. Be sure
you understand the number of credits, and courses,
you are committing to and that you can handle
the workload.
