Pay tuition

The cost for a three-hour dual credit course is currently $150 ($50/credit hour) with a $15 per credit hour fee, and a program fee of $8/per credit hour.

For a typical three semester credit hour class, the dual-credit fee is $45 ($15/credit hour), and the program fee is $24 ($8/credit hour). This would make the total cost of a three-hour dual credit course $219.

Beginning Summer 2026, TWU will participate in Financial Aid for Swift Transfer (FAST), a state program that allows public colleges and universities to offer dual credit courses at no cost to educationally disadvantaged students.

To qualify for FAST, students must meet all requirements below.

Attend a public high school or charter school.
Enroll in dual credit courses offered through their school district.
Qualified for the National Free or Reduced Lunch Program during the current academic year or within the four years prior to enrolling in the courses.

For students who do not qualify for FAST

Tuition will be $58 per credit hour beginning summer 2026.
A typical three credit hour course is $174 (not including textbooks).

You can save substantially on college costs through dual credit courses. For comparison, courses not part of TWU’s dual credit program cost $1,198 per course.

Note: Tuition for courses does not include the cost of textbooks, which varies depending on the course, or the one-time application fee of $50.
Late Registration: A $50 late fee will be assessed for all enrollments on the first day of class and during the late registration period.

Classes must be paid for by the deadlines outlined in the Academic Calendar. Classes can also be paid for through the Bursar.

How to drop a course

To drop a TWU dual credit course, you must:

Receive approval from your high school counselor
Submit a TWU Drop/Add Form with all required signatures to registrar@twu.edu

Dropping a TWU dual credit course at your high school or rearranging your high school schedule does not drop or withdraw you from TWU. All charges and grades will still apply unless the course(s) have been dropped officially through TWU.
