Tuition and Fee General Information

A great investment and a great value.

Paying for college is a big financial commitment. At Ohio State, the credentials you earn will be from one of the top public universities in the country and earning your credential online makes it a great value as well as a great investment in your future.

Tuition varies by program and the number of credits you’re enrolled in. Find tuition rates on the registrar’s website. No matter if you are an in-state or out-of-state student, all United States residents and graduate students (international or U.S. residents) enrolled in our distance education courses pay in-state tuition rates. You’ll pay an additional $100 (Ohio residents) or $105 (non-residents) distance fee per term and any program-specific fees. International undergraduate students will also be assessed a $500 fee per term. Graduate international students will not be charged this fee. Site-based fees, such as the recreational fee and COTA bus service, do not apply to distance students.

Important Notes about Distance Tuition:

  • Distance education is defined as those courses that are 100% distance (with no scheduled in-classroom or on-site activities). These courses are identified by the “DL” designation. All students enrolled exclusively in distance education programs/courses will be assessed the Ohio resident tuition rate.
  • If you have any in-person (P), hybrid (H), or distance enhanced (DH) courses in addition to distance education classes, all regular fees and nonresident/international tuition will be assessed.
  • A distance education administration surcharge of $100 per student per term is charged for any student who is enrolled for only courses tagged as distance education courses. Non-resident and international students enrolled in exclusively distance education courses will have the non-resident surcharge assessed at $5, resulting in the $105 total for the distance education administration surcharge waiving the regular non-resident fee. Site-based fees (e.g. COTA Fee, Recreation Center Fee and the Ohio Union Fee) will also be waived for students enrolled in all distance education courses. The revenue generated from this fee will fund 24/7 distance education support.
