Tuition

This is an Extended Campus program, which means a flat per-credit tuition rate for all students (in-state or out-of-state/international) and no student fees (they are incorporated into our flat tuition rate). Please note: some courses may include assessment, course, participation or supervision fees for additional services and materials. Most Extended Campus courses do not include these fees, but you can check the current course-specific UNC Academic Fees. Note: Program Fees do not apply to Extended Campus.

Program tuition for the 2023-24 academic year (which runs Fall, Spring, and Summer terms) is $662 per credit hour. Tuition for the 2024-25 academic year will be determined mid-June 2024.

For information about paying your bill, including UNC's BearPay monthly payment option, visit the Bursar's Office Your Bill page.

Estimates of additional costs: For the purposes of determining financial aid, UNC follows Colorado Department of Higher Education (CDHE) and federal guidelines to develop an estimated, average Cost of Attendance (budget) for different student classifications. For your personal tuition estimates, we recommend using the program-specific tuition information above. But UNC's official Cost of Attendance/Student Budgets page can help you identify other estimated expenses for which you may be responsible while completing your program.

Upcoming Courses

Textbook requirements are available six weeks before each course begins. To find books for the courses you have registered for, go to Ursa and choose My Textbooks under the Student tab. Textbooks are also submitted to the UNC Bookstore, which is one option for you to purchase them.

Synchronous Learning Sessions

Each course will include synchronous learning sessions where the professor and students meet online at the same time. These sessions are tentatively planned for most Tuesdays and occasional Wednesdays from 5:00 to 7:00 p.m. MT. Students will have input on session scheduling.

Course of Study Considerations

Because this Educational Leadership combined program provides online courses to students from a variety of degree options, not all courses listed below may apply to your program graduation requirements. Be sure to consult with your program coordinator for assistance with any course choice questions.
