The IPT online course fees and the IPT on-campus course tuition/fees are calculated differently. Your actual costs depend on how many classes you take, the type of classes you take, and your status as a resident or nonresident student.

Online Courses

IPT online course fees are calculated based on the number of credit hours as shown in the table below.  The fees listed below are effective for the 2008-2009 fall and spring semesters.

Idaho Residents	Non-Idaho Resident
$345.00 per credit hour  (e.g., one 3-credit course: $1,035.00; one 4-credit course: $1,380.00)  *Active U.S. military personnel are qualified as Idaho residents and therefore pay the Idaho resident fee of $345 per credit.	$415.00 per credit hour  (e.g., one 3-credit course: $1245.00; one 4-credit course: $1,660.00)

Fees for the courses taken through the Instructional & Performance Technology online program are comparable to, or lower than, those of other online programs throughout the country.
