Enrolled in classes – You will be billed for tuition, University fees, and possible room and board.
Enrolled in co-op – You will not be billed for tuition, but you will be billed for University fees and possible room and board.

Review the charts in the accordions below outlining the enrollment plans for each of the co-op options for more information.

Online Programs

Program Costs

The costs for online students depend upon the number of credits they register for each academic quarter. While some programs have predetermined enrollment, other programs allow students to decide how many credits they register for and how many quarters each year they enroll in. Since tuition and fees are based on the student's enrollment, Drexel will provide estimated cost of attendance based on the program schedule.

Tuition and fee rates are listed on the Drexel Online General Tuition Rates page.

Your specific cost of attendance breakdown can be viewed via your DrexelOne account.

Other Costs You Should Consider

It's important to remember that there may be other costs to consider during your education. Some of these include books, which vary by program, a computer for personal use, transportation, and miscellaneous personal costs. These other costs are taken into consideration when Drexel reviews your financial aid eligibility.
