Tuition for Courses Taken for No Credit
Tuition for courses taken for no credit (NC) is the same as for courses taken for credit.
Fractional Credit
Fractional credit is regarded as 1 hour in assessing tuition and fee charges.
Please Note: The tuition rates below do not apply to or include Extended Studies credit hours. Tuition for each Extended Studies course is charged in addition to tuition for any "Main Campus" credit hours and is established by the individual university department/college offering the course. For questions about the tuition rate for a particular Extended Studies course, please, contact the offering department/college.
Mandatory Student Fees
Students are subject to FULL student fees when enrolled in online and on-campus courses (courses with an in-person component).
Students enrolled in online courses only are responsible for paying the Information Technology and Student Information System (SIS) fees (as well as matriculation and international student fees, if applicable).
Students enrolled in Continuing Education courses off-campus are only assessed the Information Technology and Student Information System (SIS) fees. However, students enrolled in courses taught on campus or concurrently enrolled in both Continuing Education and Denver main campus courses located on campus are subject to full student fees.
