Undergraduate Tuition and Fees

The tuition and fees assessed by the University of Michigan are subject to change without advance notice by the Regents of the University. The information provided below is intended for general information purposes.

The tuition is a student's contribution to the costs of instruction and library services. In addition, a registration fee ($80.00 for a full term and $40.00 for a half term), a college government fee ($1.50), a Michigan Student Assembly fee ($7.19), and a Student Legal Services fee ($6.00) in a full term are assessed. The tuition schedule is based on the number of credits elected during a specific term as well as on residency status (see Residency Regulations in this chapter) and class standing: lower-division (up to 54 credits toward a degree program) or upper-division (55 or more credits toward a degree program). The following tuition information was applicable for undergraduates enrolled at the University of Michigan (Ann Arbor) during the 2007-08 academic year. Tuition for the 2008-09 academic year is subject to change. Tuition for the 2007-08 academic year for a full program (12-18 credits) was

  • $5129 per term for Michigan resident (lower-division) students;
  • $15556 per term for non-Michigan resident (lower-division) students;
  • $5793 per term for Michigan resident (upper-division) students; and
  • $16655 per term for non-Michigan resident (upper-division) students.

The tuition schedule for programs of less than 12 credits or more than 18 credits varies according to the specific number of credits elected, residency status, and lower/upper division status. Tuition and fee schedule information is available from the Office of the Registrar. umich.edu/~regoff/tuition. Tuition and fees are payable prior to registration, or at the end of the first month of a term.

Students are required to pay all accounts due the University in accordance with regulations set forth for such payments. Students with a "financial hold " are not able to register and cannot obtain a transcript of previous academic work.

This information refers to tuition only and does not include the cost of housing, board, or personal incidental expenses. University housing rates are available from the University Housing Office. Information about average student expenses based on class-level, and residency is available from the Office of Financial Aid, finaid.umich.edu/Financial_Aid_Basics/cost.asp.
