Cost of Attendance
The figures that follow are for the OSU-Oklahoma City 2024-2025 academic year.
The Department of Education requires OSU-Oklahoma City to estimate what it costs to attend college. The Financial Aid Office assigns the cost of attendance based on a student’s residency, dependency, and enrollment status. The cost of attendance will include average figures for tuition, fees, books and supplies, room, and board, transportation expenses, expenses for basic personal needs, and student loan fees.
The cost of attendance is a reasonable estimate based on the average cost for the metropolitan Oklahoma City area and could be more or less than the actual individual student cost.
How to calculate your costs
Students pay tuition based on the number of credits received for a particular course. In other words, the charge for a three-credit course would be three times the hourly tuition rate for that level of a course. There is one rate per credit hour incurred for undergraduate courses regardless of the course number depending upon the residency status.
Fees associated with attendance at Oklahoma State University – Oklahoma City are charged per credit hour. You would multiply the total number of hours you are taking by the amount of the fee to calculate your charges.

Tuition and General Fees
These fees are collected from every student as a condition of enrollment to receive instruction at OSU-OKC. Tuition and general fees have been set regardless of the instruction method and will not be refunded in the event instruction occurs remotely for any part of the academic year. Individual courses may have special class or equipment fees in addition to the fees listed below.
Any additions or increases in tuition and/or general fees are implemented only after careful scrutiny by the University Administration, and always in an effort to contribute to the betterment and general welfare of the academic and campus community, as well as the individual students. The University then submits requests for tuition and/or fee increases to the OSU A&M Regents, as well as the Oklahoma State Regents for Higher Education. Both groups review requests and verify that the legislative guidelines have been met, and then make the final determination of approval.

- Tuition Insurance
OSU-Oklahoma City has proudly partnered with GradGuard™ to offer tuition insurance to students and families. This protection strengthens our existing refund policy and can provide reimbursement for tuition, housing, and other fees if a student withdraws for a covered medical reason at any time during the covered semester.
Why buy tuition insurance?
GradGuard™ Tuition Insurance can help students and their families overcome the financial losses that may result if a student completely withdraws due to a covered medical reason. Purchasing tuition insurance is entirely optional. Whether you choose to purchase tuition insurance (and at what total coverage amount) will depend on your individual net cost and your personal risk appetite.
*Tuition insurance is completely optional. The agreement you enter is with GradGuard, not with OSU-OKC.

International Students
Enrollment fees for each semester are due according to the regular fee payment schedule. It is important that sufficient funds are available at the beginning of each semester to pay school charges, as well as to purchase necessary books and supplies.
International students are classified as non-resident students for the purposes of
tuition and fee assessment. International students are in the United States to pursue
an education and not establish domicile; thus, they are only able to maintain temporary
residence in Oklahoma. Time spent while classified as a non-immigrant student (F-1-visa)
does not contribute to the establishment of permanent residence in Oklahoma.
