Postsecondary Analytics Research File on Institutional Tuition and Fees by Courseload

Summary:

Existing sources of data on tuition and fees include a single amount for

full-time students, but no detail on how that varies depending on students’ courseloads. For the purpose of this project, Postsecondary Analytics researched the specific tuition and fee charges for different courseloads (e.g. 3, 6, 9, 12, 15, and 18 credits) at public and private institutions with enrollments over 2,000 students and a sample of those with smaller enrollments. Where the data were available, they are included in this file.
