Additional Fees

Telecourses - $14.80 per course license/tape rental fee per course; and 22.90 fee per course.

Tuition

Distance Learning classes through WVC use the same tuition schedule as other classes taught on campus, though WashingtonOnline (section code WO) classes are charged at a self-support rate.  See note below.

Note on tuition for WashingtonOnline classes:

At WVC, WashingtonOnline (section code WO) classes are considered self-supporting. This means the tuition for a WashingtonOnline course will be $96.39 per credit (Washington resident rate for 2011-12), or $481.95 for a five-credit class, regardless of the number of credits you take. In other words, there is no reduction in per credit tuition if you take over 10 credits as with other WVC classes.

Example:
16 credits, no WashingtonOnline (section WO) classes:  Tuition = $1542.24 (2011-12 rates)

16 credits, of which 5 credits are WashingtonOnline (section WO):  Tuition = $1489.23 (11 credits for $1007.28 + $481.95 for WashingtonOnline class).
