Fees, Payment, and Refund
Students are responsible for filing drop requests and all associated fees. Partial charges might be posted on your account depending on the drop date even though students did not make payment.

| Type | Cost |
|---|---|
| LEC/SEM/SUP | $288 per unit |
| Activity | $300 per unit |
| Lab | $386 per unit |
*Fees are subject to change without notice.
Winter Session is the only semester at SJSU that doesn't charge the mandatory campus fees.
A $45 late fee will be assessed depending on your late registration date. Refer to the Winter Session calendar for specific dates. Billing statements will not be sent and students are responsible for checking their MySJSU account for the payment due date. Failure to pay fees by the due date may result in classes being dropped without notice.
Some courses, such as laboratory and limited enrollment courses, have higher costs and may have fees significantly higher than the basic tuition rate shown here. The actual per course fee is listed after each class in the schedule.
Residents and non-residents of California (out-of-state students and foreign students) are charged tuition at the same rate in this session.

Student Record Holds

Fee Disclaimer
The CSU makes every effort to keep student costs to a minimum. Fees listed in published schedules or student accounts may need to be increased when public funding is inadequate. Therefore, CSU must reserve the right, even after initial fee payments are made, to increase or modify any listed fees, without notice, until the date when instruction for a particular semester or quarter has begun. All CSU listed fees should be regarded as estimates that are subject to change upon approval by The Board of Trustees.
