External Student Program Fees
Fees for the program fall into three categories: application fee, student services fee, and course fees. Our fees are the same for all students, we do not currently charge different fees for out-of-state students.
Application Fee (one time): $125.00 ($85.00 for former Ohio University students and military personnel)
Pays for the processing your application, evaluating transcripts, and your first year in the program.
Student Services Fee (yearly): $75.00
The student services fee is charged on a yearly basis beginning on the anniversary of your admission to the program. This fee keeps your files current and helps to cover the cost of our toll-free number and other basic office costs.
A billing reminder is sent out before your admission anniversary. If you do not pay your student services fee, then your records are moved to our "inactive" files for two years. If you are considered "inactive," then you do not have access to advising or course choice approvals. If you have not paid your student services fee within two years, your file is destroyed. Any course work that you have completed with Ohio University does remain on permanent file with Ohio University.
