Fee-Based Programs Overview
The University offers both state-supported and fee-based degree programs. Students who are enrolled in most fee-based programs will use a different process to register for classes and pay for their courses than students in state-supported programs. Most fee-based programs are offered through the UW’s Continuum College. Some units administer their own fee-based programs and rates are maintained on program websites.
Information regarding fee-based programs, including available financial aid, can be found on the Office of Student Financial Aid website.
The Office of the University Registrar maintains a Fee-based programs FAQ.
Fee-based program rates are established and changed through an annual process. In accordance with E.O. 44, the Provost approves fee-based program rates.
