In the summer, tuition and fees are charged on a per term/session hour basis (ie Summer Session 1 and Summer Session 2 are two seperate terms) and fewer fees are charged than during the academic year. Beginning Summer 2023 students will be charged based on the student's program type (Boone/Hickory Campus or Appstate Online), and residency. This is irregardless of the delivery method of the course.
