ASU tuition and fees are approved annually by the Arizona Board of Regents. In addition to resident and nonresident tuition, commonly billed tuition and fees include:
- Differential Tuition and Program Tuition: Certain colleges and programs assess additional differential and program tuition as approved by the Arizona Board of Regents. Visit the Tuition and Fees Schedules for college and program specific tuition and fees.
- Excess Hours Tuition: The Arizona Legislature enacted legislation in 2005 (A.R.S. § 15-1626) that establishes credit hour thresholds for undergraduate students who attend a public university in Arizona. Undergraduate students who enroll for credit hours beyond the applicable threshold are required to pay an Excess Hours. Students who have more than 145 credit hours will be assessed the Undergraduate Excess. See exemptions for the Tuition Surcharge at https://tuition.asu.edu/tuition-surcharge.
- Undergraduate College Fee 1-5: The Undergraduate College Fee is assessed based on a student's program of study. *Effective for fall 25, programs will be categorized in one of five categories. ASU conducted a comprehensive review of all instructional costs for every program. Programs of study with similar costs were grouped together, and those fees were averaged to determine an amount of each category. Please note that some programs of study are categorized differently based on a student's online or immersion status. *Visit the Tuition Estimator to determine your Undergraduate College Fee. *Prior to fall 25, undergraduate college fees were categorized in one of four categories.
