Undergraduate Program Tuition and Fees

Academic Year 2024-2025

The majority of academic programs and courses that are part of your general education requirements within your academic degree program are charged at the campus base rate per credit hour. Some academic programs have slightly higher rates per credit hour to accommodate materials costs or other services. View academic program rates.

We offer several tuition discounts based on residency, military service and age. 

  • Residents of Kansas are eligible for the same rate as Missouri residents.
  • Legal residents of Arkansas, Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Kentucky, Michigan, Minnesota, Nebraska, North Dakota, Ohio, Oklahoma, South Dakota, Tennessee, Texas and Wisconsin may qualify for the Heartland Rate

Tuition is assessed each semester. Your program's tuition rate does not include the Student Life Fee.

Students enrolled in a Study Abroad program through UMKC will be charged the academic program rate for their degree program for any coursework that requires a tuition payment as a part of that program.

Visiting students

The campus base rate applies to both visiting students and students enrolled at UMKC as part of Cross Campus Enrollment, regardless of declared major or officially recorded academic program.
