Increasing or Adding Fees
Please see University policy at http://www.ohiou.edu/policy/20-095.html for guidelines of establishing and changing fees.
Before departments can charge a fee, they must first provide two copies of a fee proposal to the University Fee Committee for approval. The letter must contain the amount and reasoning for the fee. The Fee Committee makes a resommendation to the Provost for approval or dissaproval. The Provost makes the final decision. The Bursar's Office and Registrar's Office will receive a copy of the approved fees from the University Fee Committee. The Fee Committee will notify the department of approval or disapproval.
Special course fees (e.g. classroom workbooks) will be included with the quarterly tuition billing sent by the Bursar. These fees should not be collected by the professor or department.
