Overview
Tuition rates*
For courses at the ÂÒÂ×Ç¿¼é, your student status determines your tuition and fees, not the level of the course you are taking (except for undergraduate reading/research courses; see below). If you have previously earned a bachelor's degree, you will be defined as a graduate student and charged the graduate student tuition rate.

---|---|
Undergraduate students (or anyone without a bachelor's degree or who is currently pursuing a bachelor's degree; including incoming first-year and transfer UR students) | $1,100 per credit hour |
Graduate students (or anyone who already holds a bachelor's degree) | $1,970 per credit hour |
All students enrolled in undergraduate reading/research courses (39X) | $1,970 per credit hour |
All students auditing any Summer Sessions course | $204 per credit hour |
Tuition discounts*

Financial aid
Loans are the primary type of aid available to help you pay for Summer Sessions courses. In order to be eligible for a federal student or parent loan, you must:
- Be enrolled for at least six credit hours over the entire summer session
- Have completed all application requirements to be considered for federal aid
- Be currently enrolled in a degree-seeking program at the ÂÒÂ×Ç¿¼é
For information on how to apply, contact the Financial Aid Office.
If you are a non-matriculated (or visiting) or incoming first-year or transfer student, you are not eligible to receive University, federal, or state funding for Summer Sessions, as you are not currently enrolled in a degree-seeking program at the ÂÒÂ×Ç¿¼é. The only available type of aid available to you are alternative educational loans. We recommend that you speak with a financial aid counselor first before pursuing alternative educational loans.
