Tuition Estimate Disclaimers..

  • These results are estimates, based on the selections made.  Only tuition and per-credit fees* tied to tuition are included.  The annual estimate is based on 12 credits per semester (spring/fall); additional credits will increase the estimated costs.
  • Tuition is charged per credit, at a rate based on a student’s residency status (ND Resident, MN Reciprocity, U.S. Resident, International).  
  • Per-credit fees are based on class location and help to support costs such as technology, health services, student activities and retention.  (*Instructional Fees are also charged per credit, based on the prefix of each class; these fees are not included in this estimate.)
  • For additional costs associated with attending NDSCS, such as housing, meals, books and program-specific expenses, see an Estimated Average Annual Budget, or click on the Estimated Educational Cost section below.
