2023–24 Undergraduate Tuition and Fees

Each semester is billed according to the number of credit hours you're registered for in that semester. Waitlisted classes are not billed until you are officially added to the class.

Full-time registration is 12 or more credits in a semester. Westminster scholarships and federal student aid usually require full-time enrollment.

For each credit above 16, there is an additional charge of $1,638 per credit hour for tuition. See the following tuition and fees chart for a complete breakdown by credit hour of total semester charges. Additional fees may apply for certain classes including, but not limited to, nursing, education, photography, and private music lessons.
