2024-2025 Tuition and Fees - New Tiered Tuition Model
Fall 2024 - Summer 2025
Jefferson College tuition and fees remain among the lowest in the State of Missouri.
*Rates are subject to change without notice.*
Beginning in the fall 2024 semester, Jefferson College is implementing a tiered tuition model. This makes calculating the cost of attendance easier due to the elimination of course fees. Common fees that will be eliminated include technology, activity, lab, online and hybrid fees. The textbook fee will not be incorporated into the tiered tuition, because students have the choice to opt out of the Viking Ready program. Although the Viking Ready Book Bundle provides course materials at a reduced rate, students still have the option to purchase materials from other sources instead.
