Fee Descriptions

Tuition-Related Fees

Instructional Fee: This required fee covers costs associated with instruction and is a component of tuition.

General Fee: The general fee is a required component of tuition, and it provides funding for non-instructional student services. The fee is charged to every student who is enrolled in at least one class. The services and activities supported by the fee promote students' emotional and physical well-being, as well as their cultural and social development outside the classroom.

Non-Resident Surcharge: This required fee applies to all students who do not qualify for Ohio residency. It is used to fund those instructional costs the state pays for on behalf of qualifying Ohio residents.

Technology Fee: This required fee is based on the student's college. This fee supports instructional technology used in student labs and classrooms.

WellBeing: The WellBeing Fee was created in 2008 as an optional enhancement to student health care.
