eLearning Fee
The University's eLearning fee for online classes (section 500 and 600 series classes) is $25.00 per credit hour. The fee supports the technology infrastructure for online learning, 24/7 technical support for students and faculty development and support. eLearning fees are charged for all online, websync, blended and sync-async classes.
Online, Websync, Blended and Sync-Async Classes Definitions
Fully online classes are asynchronous and do not require students to be available at a set day and time for synchronous, online activities. Exams, tests and quizzes are administered online and may require proctoring.
Websync classes have synchronous content. Class meeting times for synchronous activities will be listed in the course scheduling system (Campusnet), so students are aware of the required meeting times prior to registration.
