Gateway Classes (100% online)

The normal Gateway course load is six hours per semester (except during the one summer session which is 9 hours). Please see the UTC Learn and Distance fee schedules distributed by the Bursars Office for current rates. For 2015-16 tuition for six hours was $2,089 for Tennessee residents and $2,245 for out-of-state. In addition, there is a $55/credit hour (or a total of $330 for six hours) Nursing fee. Tuition is set by the Board of Trustees annually.

Other UTC Classes (on-campus)

If you take additional on-campus general education classes at UTC, those will be billed at the regular fee schedule. Your advisor can tell you how many general education classes you will need to earn a BSN.

Books

Many of the Gateway classes require a textbook, so budget around $250/semester for this expense. Used books, rental textbooks, or e-Book versions can lower your cost.

Hints

Check with your employer to see if you may be reimbursed for tuition and other expenses. You may also be eligible for Financial Aid.

During the summer semester, you will be taking 9 credit hours rather than 6, so tuition will be greater. You'll want to plan for this expense, especially since financial aid is typically disbursed during the spring and fall.
