Tuition and Fees for Collaborative Engineering Programs - Students enrolled in the electrical or mechanical engineering programs offered by FSU in collaboration with University of Maryland, College Park are subject to a different tuition and fee arrangement due to the unique nature of the program. During the freshman and sophomore years, students pay FSU tuition and fees. After completing 45 credits of designated course work, students will apply for formal acceptance into UMCP’s Clark School of Engineering and will be considered UMCP students for the remainder of the program. Students will then pay UMCP tuition rates and FSU fees to the FSU University and Student Billing Office.

Other Fees and Expenses

Late Payment Fee: A late payment fee of $30 is charged for payments received after the established payment deadline.

Late Registration Fee: A late registration fee of $30 is charged for not registering as prescribed.

Payment Plans: Various payment plans are available. See the University & Student Billing Office Payment Plans web page for details.

Career Services Credential Fee: A $20 fee allows the student to establish a credential file through the Office of Career Services. This is a one-time optional fee.

Duplicate Copies: A $3 fee is charged for each statement of fees (or other receipt) requested. A $20 fee is charged for each duplicate ID Card.

Returned Check Charge: A $30 fee is charged whenever a check given in payment of any obligation is returned by the bank. Article 27, Section 142 of the Annotated Code of Maryland states that anyone who obtains money, etc., by bad check is subject to prosecution. All checks returned to the University by the bank as “unpaid” (this includes checks on which payment has been stopped or uncollect funds) must be paid within seven days of the University’s notification to the student.
