Tuition & Fees

All students are subject to a tuition charge in addition to the other fees charged Connecticut and out-of-state students. Each student should file an Affidavit of Residence form provided by the University. Based on the information provided, each entering student is classified as a Connecticut or an out-of-state resident. A student who fails to submit this form will be classified as an out-of-state resident.

The current schedule of fees is expected to prevail during the current academic year, but the board of trustees of the University of Connecticut and the Board of Higher Education reserves the right to make changes in fees at any time. Fee bills for the first-year students are mailed soon after June 1 for the fall semester. Fee bills for the upperclass students are mailed soon after July 1 for the Fall semester. Fee bills for all students will be mailed soon after November 1 for the spring semester.

Financial Responsibility

Failure to receive a bill does not relieve a student of responsibility for payment of tuition and fees by the due date. Registration is not complete until all tuition and fees have been paid in full on or before the Tenth business day of the semester. Failure to make payment on time will result in late fees, cancellation of registration and other privileges accorded a student in good standing. These include but are not limited to: advance registrations, registrations, class attendance and academic transcript privileges. Partial payment of tuition and fees will be accepted however the bill must be paid in full for holds to be released.

Late Registration/Payment Fee

An accumulating penalty fee is charged students who fail to pay all due fees on or before the first day of classes of any semester (additions to and deletions from a student's initial registration and payment of the resulting adjusted fee bill can occur freely through the end of the tenth business day of the semester).

This fee is $5 for each weekday (excluding Saturdays, Sundays, and legal State holidays) occurring after the tenth day of the semester that registration and payment have not been completed. Students granted a limited deferment by the Student Finance Office are charged the late fee if they fail to meet any of the terms of the deferment. For these students, the fee begins to accumulate on the first business day following a deferment date.

The General University Fee provides support for such programs as recreational activities, Student Health Services and other campus activities and programs.

Audit Fees

Students auditing courses pay the same tuition and fees as those students who have enrolled for course credit.
