Differential Tuition

“Differential Tuition” means tuition that is higher or lower than the Published Tuition established for each university campus or location and applies to all graduate or undergraduate academic programs in a college or school.

Additional Information

Only graduate and professional programs are eligible to submit differential tuition (DT) proposals. 

  • All DT proposals (including new proposals, changes exceeding the ABOR-approved growth rate, and modifications within the approved growth rate) must be submitted by August 1, 2026

Approved fees will take effect in Fall 2027 or later terms, based on approval through the Arizona Board of Regents fall cycle. Fee implementation for any term prior to Fall 2027 is no longer available.

Academic Fee Request Forms

All academic fee proposals—including new fees, increases exceeding the Arizona Board of Regents-approved growth rates, and modifications within approved growth rates—must be submitted using the appropriate request form with all required documentation.

  • Form #10 – New Academic Fee Request (for new fees and increases exceeding approved growth rates)
  • Form #11 – Academic Fee Modification Request (for changes within approved growth rates)

These forms require additional attachments, including the budget template, market pricing comparison, and applicable ABOR Forms.
