Students are responsible for purchasing textbooks and supplies required for class. Although the cost of textbooks and supplies
varies according to the program, the average per 15 credit hours is $400.
Notes
1. Program tuition and total program cost are based upon standard full-time program length. Standard full-time undergraduate program length is based on
average of 15 credit hours per quarter. For Associate Program, 4 quarters at 13.5 credits and 2 quarters at 18 credits = 90 credits. For Bachelor's
program, 8 quarters at 13.5 credits and 4 quarters at 18 credits = 180 credits. Actual amounts will be based upon actual program length, which may vary
due to transferred credits, or repeated courses. Repeated courses, not averaging 15 credit hours per quarter, and part-time status (taking less than 12
credit hours) will increase program tuition and total program cost.
2. Students who graduate from the Associate's Degree Programs and enroll into an AIU Baccalaureate Degree Program (other than same program in the
Baccalaureate Degree Programs) may be required to take additional courses to satisfy program requirements. Taking additional courses will increase
program length, program tuition, and total program costs.
3. Full-time tuition cost per quarter is based on credit hour load between 12 to 18 credits.
4. Student taking more than 18 credit hours during a quarter will be charged on a full-time per-credit-hour basis for all credits taken.
5. Students taking less than 12 credit hours during a quarter will be charged on a part-time per-credit-hour basis.
6. The part-time per-credit-hour rate includes a tuition premium.
7. Students taking less than 12 credit hours during the June five week Summer intersession will not incur the part-time per credit hour tuition premium and will
be charged on a full-time per-credit-hour basis (see above 19+ credits full-time charge*.)
8. The application fee is a one time fee that may only be waived in certain circumstances. The application fee may only be waived for students who are:
re-entering; re-enrolling; enrolling with established articulation or Education Partner agreements; AIU Alumni; or transferring from a CEC sponsored school.
9. Custom suite of course materials for Virtual Campus online courses are provided to the student by Words of Wisdom, LLC. At the University's discretion,
books may be delivered in an electronic (e-Book) or standard textbook format. Students not wishing to use e-Books are responsible for any additional
