Student Service Fee and what it funds

We have seen a rise in the number of students seeking out support services such as counseling, advising, career development, success coaching and mental health support.

In 2018, the Board of Trustees approved a student service fee which is charged on a per-semester basis, to invest more heavily in these areas critical to student success.

Here’s a look at how the student service fee supports you.
