Academics
RegistrationLimitationsEnrollment in some courses in business, computer science, education, engineering, aviation, aerospace studies, and art may be limited. Art fields may require a portfolio. Music may require an audition.
Several departments on campus have instituted differential tuition for their courses. Information on differential tuition can be found on the last page of the Tuition and Fee Schedule: https://www.usu.edu/registrar/registration/payment/. Students on any exchange program may take up to 6 credits of classes that have differential tuition and have that covered under your exchange agreement.
