In-State Students | $179/credit hour |
Out-of-State Students: From Contiguous Counties* | $358/credit hour |
Out-of-State Students: Other Out-of-State Students | $627/credit hour |
Online-Only Courses+ (all students): | $179/credit hour |
Mandatory Fee** (all students): | $8/credit hour |
Distance Learner Fee*** | $20/credit hour |
What's With the ***?
Great question!
The first * is for contiguous counties. Contiguous counties are those which border Kentucky. Students from these counties pay a special tuition rate. Students from Reciprocity Counties pay in-state tuition.
Next, the ** is the KCTCS BuildSmart Investment for Kentucky Competitiveness fee.
Then *** is the distance learner fee. You'll pay this fee if you have classes with
online portions, like Learn on Demand or Learn by term. Don't worry, 'hybrid' classes
don't pay this fee.
+For students who are enrolled in online-only courses, the tuition is the same regardless
of your residency. Other fees, such as the mandatory fee and distance learning fee
still apply.
