Eligibility

Because courses in this program will only be available online, the program may not be available to all applicants. The University of Louisiana at Lafayette and its online programs must be in compliance in every state where a student is located. (Visit the Online Programs website to learn more.) International students also may not be eligible. According to U.S. immigration regulations, F-1 students cannot pursue online degrees; international students in other visa categories (i.e., H-4, L2) are exempt from this restriction.

Tuition

UL Lafayette students enrolled in certain 100% online degree or certificate programs will pay a flat, per-credit-hour rate tuition. For Moody College of Business, the flat rate applies to our online BSBA in Management, online MS Accounting, and online Graduate Certificate programs. Flat rate tuition is not available for our MBA online program or on campus undergraduate/graduate students taking online courses. On campus students taking online courses will still pay the on-campus tuition rate and distance learning fee. Students in undergraduate online degree programs pay $380 per credit hour; online graduate students pay $480 per credit hour. Additional course fees, including materials, labs and proctoring fees, are not included. Online students are not assessed additional operational and activity fees or out-of-state tuition.
