Fee-Based Programs

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.

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.
