BSU Continuing Studies Cost
BSU Continuing Studies works with our academic departments to provide undergraduate courses online, at night and on weekends during the fall and spring semesters. Continuing Studies courses include courses that begin after 4 pm, Monday - Friday, and on weekends during the fall and spring semesters and for Summer Session and Winter Intersession. Continuing Studies courses include all undergraduate courses during Summer Session and Winter Intersession including online courses and day and night courses. The cost of Summer and Winter Intersession courses are separate from Fall And Spring day tuition. The Bridgewater Commitment does not include the cost of Summer or Winter Intersession courses, only Day and Spring semester courses.
BSU students: BSU students enrolled in a day degree program may mix day, night and online courses. The per credit cost is the same for day, night or online courses at BSU. But, if a day student enrolls in more than 12 credits total during the fall or spring semester (day, night or online courses), there is an additional per-credit charge for night courses or hybrid courses that begin after 4 pm or that meet on the weekend. Web courses are considered the day rate but are subject to the $28 per credit online fee.
**Please Note: The Bridgewater Commitment DOES NOT include the cost of SUMMER or WINTER INTERSESSION courses. It only covers courses taken in the Fall and Spring semesters. Students must pay all costs associated with SUMMER or WINTER INTERSESSION courses.
