Tuition & Fees
Stay on track with Summer Term!
Financial resources
Summer Term is an affordable way to stay on track for graduation or even graduate early, saving money on tuition, housing and more down the road. Scholarships and other types of financial aid help make Summer Term budget-friendly, too.
Pay the same rate for 6–9 credits: Undergraduate summer tuition is usually charged per credit, but taking between 6 and 9 credits costs a single flat fee. That means you can take up to 9 credit hours for the price of 6!

How it works
For University of Wisconsin schools including UW–Madison, tuition is determined by the UW System Board of Regents, based on budgets approved by the Wisconsin governor and legislature. The Madison Budget Office determines the rates for each academic program at UW–Madison.
Fall and Spring term rates are set in late July or early August, and the workbook is updated as soon as possible after that. Rates for the Summer Term are usually posted in late March.
You can review the cost of courses by visiting and viewing the Tuition Rates Workbook.
