— Tuition and Fees

Option #1: Registering for Transfer Credit

What is the Cost of Option 1?

Choose this option for these reasons:

• You are enrolled in a university outside the U.S. that will accept your classes as transfer credit
• You don't have to pay tuition at MSSU because you are here on an exchange agreement

Don't choose this option if the following is true:

• You plan to finish your degree at Missouri Southern
• You don't want to pay out-of-state tuition for credits that won't count toward a degree

Choose this option for these reasons:

• You are a resident of Missouri and pay resident tuition
• You are enrolled at Missouri Southern and expect to complete a degree here, OR
• You are taking classes at Missouri Southern and are not interested in a degree.

Don't choose this option if the following is true:

• You are an international student or a non-resident student.
• You are an international student pursuing a degree outside the U.S. but the English credits will not transfer to your home university.

Choose this option for these reasons:

• You are a non-resident student and want to pay less than out of state tuition costs.
• You prefer to pay a fee for the program, rather than the prices of individual classes.

Don't choose this option if the following is true:

• You need the courses for English credit at a university outside the U.S.
• You are signing up for only one or for three IEP courses (then the credit option is cheaper)

Students must also consider costs related to:

• University Fees = $286 for Full time and $158 for part-time students
• Text Books Fees = $7.00/credit for text book rentals (some of your books) and the cost of books for sale
• Other University Fees = Some courses have specifc fees to cover supplies
• The cost of housing (See the university web site for the costs of on-campus housing) http://www.mssu.edu/slc/housingcost-style.htm
