Tuition & Fees

At UL Lafayette, we pride ourselves on providing exceptional undergraduate and graduate education where you will get the most value for your money.

What you pay in tuition fees each semester is based on a few factors:

  • Whether you're in an on-campus program or an online program;
  • Whether you're an undergraduate or graduate student;
  • How many credit hours you're taking that semester; and
  • Whether you're an in-state, or out-of-state resident, or an international student.
