What is the Regulatory Affairs Program Fee?
A program fee for Regulatory Affairs Graduate Education Programs is charged in addition to the standard graduate tuition rate. The program fee is used directly to cover fixed costs and help run day-to-day expenses of the program (i.e., administrative costs, operating costs, delivery, technology, etc). This is necessary since tuition is State money that goes back to the USG Board of Regents for system-wide instruction and allocation, based on credit hour production. The program fee provides needed funds to operate new specialized programs of study, which do not enroll the large number of students required to generate enough credit hours for sufficient state support.
