Tuition and fees are charged at the time a student registers for classes. Due dates are published in the annual Timetable of Classes. Billing statements are mailed as a courtesy. It is the student's responsibility to pay all current charges in full on or before the due date. Billing statements are available from the Student Accounts Office or the University Cashier.
Tuition is used for the construction of academic facilities.
It is not used for either Housing and Dining System buildings or support of the University's operating budget. The operations fee, with the state's general fund appropriation, is used to support the instruction, library, student services, administration and maintenance functions of the University. This state allocation covered approximately 64 percent of the instructional cost of resident students. This information is provided in compliance with Washington State House Bill 1124. This fee is non-refundable.
