Other Fees

Graduate Application Fee
A $40.00 nonrefundable application fee is assessed each person applying for admission to Montana State University Billings for the first time as a graduate student or to take graduate courses.  The applicant has one calendar year from the semester of initial application to apply for readmission without paying an additional application fee.

Audit Fee
Any person not otherwise enrolled, and who does not want to register in a course for college credit, may, with approval, enroll upon payment of a $15.00 per credit hour audit fee.  Regularly enrolled students who elect to audit a course must pay the normal per credit hour fee as outlined in the student fee schedule.  Audit fees are nonrefundable.

Course-Related Fees
Several Montana State University Billings courses require additional fees.  Examples of these include art materials, laboratory courses, or field trips.  Some practicum and internship classes require an extra fee for professional liability insurance.  A complete schedule of course related fees is available from the Business Office.

Field Based Liability Insurance
During their internship and clinical practice, students in the Rehabilitation Counseling program or any student doing a field-based experience in a nonpublic school setting, must be covered by liability insurance.  The Business Office will add this fee (typically $30.00 a semester) for professional liability coverage to the semester bill.

Graduation Fee
A $50.00 nonrefundable fee is assessed per degree for each application to graduate.

Parking Permits
All vehicles parked on University property must display a current Montana State University-Billings parking permit on weekdays when classes are in session during the hours specified in the “Montana State University Billings Traffic and Parking Regulations” brochure.

Transcript Fee
Students may receive one free official transcript.  Each official transcript thereafter costs $3.00.  No charge is assessed for unofficial transcripts.

Returned Check Fee
An administrative service fee of $15.00 is assessed each time a check is returned by a bank.  Any check tendered in payment of fees and returned by a bank may result in the postponement of a student’s registration and a $40.00 late registration charge.  Student registration is not complete until all fees have been paid or arrangements made for payments.  Tuition and fees are paid per semester.
