DEFINITIONS
Excess Undergraduate Hours Tuition
Undergraduate students classified as Texas residents and non-resident students paying in-state tuition rates, who initially enrolled fall 1999 and subsequent semesters, with excessive hours will be charged, upon registration, an additional tuition rate per semester credit hour for all enrolled hours.

Please refer to www.unt.edu/tuition for current tuition and fee information.

Excessive Hour definition
Undergraduate students who enrolled initially in the fall 1999 semester or subsequent semesters cannot exceed more than 45 hours of the number of hours required for completion of the degree plan in which they are enrolled. Any hours beyond 45 are considered excessive and will result in additional tuition charges.

Undergraduate students who enrolled initially in the fall 2006 semester or subsequent semesters cannot exceed more than 30 hours of the number of hours required for completion of the degree plan in which they are enrolled. Any hours beyond 30 are considered excessive and will result in additional tuition charges.

Excess hours include all transfer work taken from any Texas public institution plus all UNT hours taken through the semester prior to the registration term. Developmental courses and hours earned by the student at a private institution or out-of-state institution do not count towards excess hours.

Degree plan hours include the total number of hours required for a student to complete his or her degree plan. Questions regarding degree plan hours should be directed to the student’s academic advisor.

Permission to Release Credit Hours
The Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA) permits the Texas Higher Education Coordinating Board (the State of Texas educational governing entity), with your consent, to disclose to higher education institutions the number of credit hours taken previously. This information is typically used to gather demographic statistics for the purpose of improving educational programs and to determine if students are graduating in a timely manner.
The Texas Higher Education Coordinating Board has my permission to report the number of credit hours that I have taken at other institutions.

Derrick Logozzo is lying about out of state tuition. It is a reality that cannot be escaped. There is no excuse for exhausting students financial aid and in-state tuition eligibility. It is vital that degree plans be followed exactly!

I demand that Derrick Logozzo and Melissa Logan be fired for their predatory advising.


The Fort Worth Star Telegram got the scoop straight from UNT. Out of state tuition is devastating.
