<p>Hey everyone,
Sorry I'm having a brain fart. Do you know what tuition covers? Are the cost of the classes that we take included in tuition or do we have to pay for classes separate? I'm feeling somewhat stresses because my family and I are tight on money. Any information would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.</p>
<p>The fees you pay cover all the classes you take during the year, as well as administrative fees and health insurance (unless you opted out of it), etc.

<p>is the fee schedule for 04-05 - it has obviously gone up for next year, but just to give you a general idea of how the fees are split up.
You will also have to pay an "academic enhancement fee" of around $25 per class at the end of each quarter, which is used to pay for chalk/markers, paper, and other supplies.</p>
<p>Icarus, </p>
<p>I actually have a question about the "academic enhancement fee." Do you know why they charge that at the end of the quarter instead of the beginning? I mean, is it just me who thinks that it makes more sense to pay it at the beginning than at the end? Sorry, it just really ticks me off that the quarter's over and yet I still have to pay $84 for the "academic enhancement fee" especially when I had the money at the beginning of the quarter whereas I just barely have enough to pay for it now. Anywho thanks for the help and I'm off for an O-Chem quiz followed by my first final of the quarter... :/</p>
