皮马社区学院收取额外学费, 被称为差别学费, for courses that are more costly for the College to offer. Examples of some factors that may make classes cost more to offer include class size requirements of accrediting agencies or expensive equipment that must be regularly updated to meet industry standards.

受差别学费影响的星际官方赌钱

Differential tuition is applied by course prefix (the three-letter code in parentheses, below).  There are two levels of differential tuition:  差别学费A and 差别学费B.

Differential tuition rates apply to courses based on course prefix, not to entire programs. 例如:

  • a Nursing student will pay differential tuition for a Nursing (NRS) course but will not pay differential tuition for non-Nursing courses such as Writing (WRT).
  • a student in the Welding program will pay differential tuition for those courses with a course prefix of WLD, 但数学(MAT)星际官方赌钱除外.

Disciplines affected by differential tuition will be re-assessed each year based on the relative cost to offer the courses in the discipline.

Frequently Asked Questions - 微分的学费

Q: Some of the classes I intend to take next semester will be affected by differential tuition, 但其他人不会. How can I figure out how much tuition I will pay next semester?
学院创建了一个 学费计算工作表 [PDF] that you can use as an aid when calculating tuition.  本质上, Total 学费 equals 学费 for credit hours of courses with General 学费 + 学费 for credit hours of courses with 差别学费A + 学费 for credit hours of courses with 差别学费B.

问:交叉上市的星际官方赌钱怎么样?  I’m interested in taking a Fashion Design and Clothing Course that is also listed as an Art course.
Students taking officially cross-listed courses – those that appear under two disciplines – will be charged the lower of the two tuition rates.  Cross-listed courses affected by differential tuition are listed at the bottom of the 学费的日程安排.

星际官方赌钱 that are shown as options in Program displays (e.g., CIS 136 or TEC 130) are not cross-listed classes.  Each of these courses will have the tuition applied to the discipline based on course prefix.
