Tuition fees listed in published schedules or student accounts may need to be increased when public funding is inadequate. Therefore, CSU must reserve the right, even after initial tuition fee payments are made, to increase or modify any listed tuition fees, without notice, until the date when instruction for a particular semester or quarter has begun. All CSU listed tuition fees should be regarded as estimates that are subject to change upon approval by The Board of Trustees.
Note: The budget listed above reflects the estimated amount of undergraduate tuition fees based on full-time attendance during 2013-14. Other costs listed are averaged and will vary by student.
