Workshops and Short Courses
Fees are assessed and collected as announced in official University publications. All fees must be paid on or before the first day of the workshop or course.
Tuition Policy for Post-Baccalaureate Students
Degree Program Students:
Post-baccalaureate students seeking a graduate degree pay graduate tuition rates. All regular graduate tuition and fee charges will apply to this group of students.
Enrichment Program Students (Certificate, Licensure or Non-Degree Seeking):
Post-baccalaureate students who are not in a degree seeking program may apply through the Graduate application process for consideration of undergraduate tuition for courses numbered 100 - 499. Courses numbered 500 and above will be charged at the graduate rates. The full-time tuition rate in the Fall and Spring semesters does not apply to these students. All courses are charged by the credit hour regardless of the number of enrolled hours.
Tuition Policy for Undergraduate Students Receiving Graduate Credit
An undergraduate student may apply a maximum of 12 hours of credit earned in courses numbered 500-699 to a degree program. Approval of the graduate dean prior to enrollment is required to receive graduate credit for those courses. The graduate faculty of each department determines whether graduate courses previously taken are appropriate for a given graduate degree program. Undergraduate students receiving graduate credit for graduate level courses will pay graduate fees.
Contracts and Compensatory Charges
This schedule does not limit the charges which may be collected under arrangements with other governmental or private agencies except that such arrangements may not provide for lesser charges. Tuition or other charges to more nearly cover the actual cost of instruction are specifically authorized. No tuition is charged to students enrolled in programs for which the entire cost is financed by governmental or private agencies. Students taking such courses on campus must pay all required campus privilege fees.
Extended Payment Agreement
The University makes available an Extended Payment Agreement for account balances. Under this plan, students make a $150 account payment by the 5th day of class. This down payment, which can include financial aid, will retain the student’s class schedule. If a student can not pay the account balance in full by the first day of class, a $50 administrative fee will be applied to the account for an automatic payment extension to the 20th class day. If charges are not paid on or before the first extension, an additional $50 administrative fee will be automatically applied for an additional extention to the 35th class day. Any account balance remaining after the second payment extension is considered past due. A late fee of $50 will be assessed each month the balance remains outstanding. An Extended Payment Agreement can be completed in person or obtained on-line at http://www.emporia.edu/busaff. The form must be completed and returned to the Office of Cashiering Services prior to the 5th day of class.
In the summer, the University requires that students pay all charges in full prior to the first day of class. An Extended Payment Agreement is available; additional fees apply. Up-to-date payment policies for summer 2012 will be posted at this website.
