Undergraduate Tuition & Fees (Durham Campus)

  • Fall bills are posted to student Webcat accounts in mid-July and are due in early August. Spring semester bills are posted in mid-November and are due in early December. Payments must be received by published due dates.
  • Tuition rates are based on full-time registration (12-20 credits).
  • Students who register for fewer than 12 credits will be charged per credit hour. A $20 registration fee will also be added for part-time students.
  • Courses taken for audit are charged at the same rate as for-credit courses.
  • Students who register for more than 20 credit hours will be charged per credit hour for each credit over 20. The charges will be calculated at the student's current semester tuition rate. However, undergraduate students who register for more than 20 credit hours will not be billed an overload charge for auditing courses.
  • New undergraduate students are charged a one-time $350 administration fee which supports first-year initiatives, university transcripts, transfer student programming and related undergraduate initiatives to support new students' transition and success.
  • Students in the Thompson School of Applied Science are assessed a one-time curriculum fee which covers lab materials, specialized equipment maintenance and transportation that are unique to the applied nature of each program.  The fees are listed in the Undergraduate Catalog.
  • Some courses carry special fees to cover the cost of labs/studios, special equipment, materials and/or field trips. These fees are noted in the course descriptions.
  • Full-time UNH students are required to have adequate health insurance as a condition of enrollment. A charge for the UNH student health benefits plan will appear on full-time student accounts. Students presenting proof of adequate coverage from another insurance carrier may waive the UNH plan. Students with F1 or J1 visas are required to use the UNH plan. For information on the UNH Student Health Benefits Plan see Health Insurance.
