Excessive Hours and Repeat Course Fees
Additional Tuition for Excessive Undergraduate Hours
Texas Education Code § 54.014 specifies that resident undergraduate students who initially enrolled fall 1999 and later may be subject to a higher tuition rate for attempting excessive hours at any public institution of higher education while classified as a resident student for tuition purposes. Since fall 2007, UNT undergraduate students who are classified as Texas Residents and those who pay in statutory tuition rates are subject to an additional excessive hour tuition rate.
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.
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.
UNT encourages timely graduation for all students. Students are encouraged to seek assistance from their academic advisor to avoid enrolling in excessive hours.
