A student may be subject to the nonresident tuition rate if he or she enrolled in an institution of higher education for the first time in the fall semester 1999 or later and has attempted 45 or more semester hours beyond the minimum number of hours required for his or her proposed degree while classified for tuition purposes as a Texas resident. A student who is not enrolled in a degree program is treated as if he or she were enrolled in a program that requires a minimum of 120 semester hours.

$114.00 per semester hour of credit; $120.00 plus $38.00 per semester credit hour minimum each semester or summer session

Effective the fall semester 1999, a student who has earned more than ninety-nine semester hours of credit at the doctoral level will be subject to the nonresident tuition rate without regard to the student's residency status or any work appointment that would normally entitle the student to pay resident tuition.
