Tuition

All students signing up for a NEXus course at a partner institution other than their home campus will pay the NEXus Common Price for each academic year (Fall, Spring, Summer). The price per credit includes tuition and fees (including application fee, technology fee, library access, transcript request fee, etc.) and is the same, no matter where the course is offered. Note, the NEXus Common Price does not cover the cost of books or educational materials, nor any fees for late payment to the teaching institution.

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

Concurrent Enrollment Consortium Agreement

The Concurrent Enrollment Consortium Agreement allows students to coordinate enrollment information for submission and eligibility for financial aid. If you have any questions about this form, please contact the Academic Program Coordinator.
