The cost of courses offered through Extended Learning varies according to program. Below is a general overview of tuition costs. However, some programs are available to non-residents at resident rates through the Southern Regional Education Board or at a reduced rate through the Regional Incentive Fee for counties bordering West Virginia. Note: not all programs are available in all areas.
Please follow the links below to calculate the cost of your course(s).
Students taking undergraduate classes are charged depending on the college of their major. For example, a student majoring in business will be charged the College of Business and Economics rate even if he or she is taking a psychology class. If you are taking classes one time only and are not in a major at WVU, please see the guest pass rate.
Students enrolled in Extended Learning classes do not have access to the Student Recreation Center or athletic facilities because they do not pay the full fees that on-campus students do. However, off-campus students may choose to pay an optional fee of $245.00 per semester. This allows them access to the student recreation center, the PRT, and athletic events. Upon registration, students can pay this fee at the Student Accounts Office in the basement of Stewart Hall or contact them at (304) 293-4006.
