The Blockbuster Tuition Plan: All You Can Learn (for a Price)
OCU offers an annual block tuition for undergraduates. That's a fancy way of saying you pay one flat fee to take between 12 and 16 credit hours per semester. We're talking bang for your buck and knowledge for your noggin – as long as you stay within those magic credit hour limits.
But wait, there's more! If you're a bookworm who craves extra classes (or maybe you just need that extra credit to bump up your GPA), you'll be charged per additional credit hour. Think of it like a loyalty program, but for learning!
Now, here's the kicker: If you take fewer than 12 credits, you're charged per credit hour, too. So, unless you're planning on attending classes while napping (not recommended), the block tuition plan is the way to go.
Important Note: This block tuition price is subject to change, so be sure to check the official OCU website for the most up-to-date numbers. We wouldn't want you to faint from sticker shock! (
Tip: Patience makes reading smoother.
Per-Credit Hour Heroes: When Blockbusters Don't Block Enough
For our graduate students and undergraduate speed demons (those taking 17 or more credits a semester), there's a per-credit hour option. This is where your math skills come in handy, folks!
Here's the skinny: You'll pay a base rate per credit hour, with a surcharge for any credit hours exceeding the block tuition limit.
Pro-Tip: Channel your inner financial wizard and plan your course load strategically to maximize your learning and minimize your wallet's weeping.
So, How Much Does it Actually Cost?
Alright, alright, we get it. Enough with the suspense! The estimated annual cost for undergraduate block tuition is $29,804. That includes tuition and some general fees, but keep in mind there might be additional course-specific fees on top of that.
Reminder: Take a short break if the post feels long.
Graduate students, we see you too! Your per-credit hour rate might differ depending on your program. So, dust off that detective hat and hit up the OCU financial aid department for the specifics.
