Why are there different prices for the Intensive English Program at TCU?
Students who intend on pursuing a degree program at TCU are given admission preference. International students are assisted in every way to get visa paperwork (the I-20) and then to live on campus (as an option). Such students are full members of the TCU community. Their tuition covers the campus fees and memberships. For a list of these privileges, click here. There is a financial advantage to starting the IEP in May (at the beginning of the Summer), in August (at the beginning of the Fall semester), and in January (at the beginning of the Spring semester). The Materials Fee of $250 is charged only once per Summer and once per Semester. This Fee applies to all full-time IEP students. TCU recognizes another group of English learners who do not need full campus membership. Thus, to local US citizens, residents, and immigrants, TCU offers a cut-rate tuition as seats in the IEP come available. TCU employees and family members have an even deeper discount (one-half of the cut-rate tuition)
