The above tuition and tuition related fees apply to degree and non-degree students.
PART-TIME STUDENTS (1-11 credits): Tuition and tuition related fees are calculated on a per credit basis.
FULL-TIME STUDENTS (12 or more credits): Tuition and tuition related fees are calculated on a flat rate between 12-18 credits. The flat rate amount is based on 16 credits. If a full-time student takes more than 18 credits, the charges are calculated on the flat rate plus the per credit rate. For example, if an in-state student takes 20 credits, the undergraduate Tuition, Tuition Related Fees, and the Capital Improvement Fee is the flat rate of $6,379.20 plus a two (2) credit charge of $734.90. The total charge for 20 credits would be $7,114.10. Note: Capital Improvement Fee is capped at $500 per semester. Therefore, in an overload situation, no additional Capital Improvement Fee charges are assessed.
QUALIFIED RCC GRADUATES: In order to qualify for the discounted RCC tuition rate, a student must have applied and been accepted by Ramapo College not longer than one year after graduating from RCC and NOT attended another institution between graduation from RCC and accepted by Ramapo.
NOTE: If an undergraduate student takes a graduate course, tuition for the graduate course will be assessed at the graduate rate. The addition of a graduate course will not have any affect on the flat undergraduate rate. For example, if a student is registered for two 4-credit undergraduate courses and one 4-credit graduate course, there will be two entries and the student’s bill. One line will be for 8 undergraduate credits and another line for 4 graduate credits. The addition of the graduate course will not put the student into the flat fee undergraduate status.
UNDERGRADUATE NON-TUITION RELATED FEES
Non-Tuition Related Fees are supplemental fees that are assessed on an annual or semester basis. These fees help fund certain specialized educational programs, lab courses, and a range of support services. The amount of the charge depends on the program, course, or service.

Tuition Related Fees are mandatory for ALL undergraduate and graduate students. These fees support the infrastructure of the College. While these fees are calculated on the same basis as tuition, they are not determined by particular course requirements. As the fees support systems and services that are necessary for the efficient running of the College, all students are responsible for contributing to the cost of these systems and services, which are not covered by tuition. The Tuition Related Fees are the Student Center Fee, Student Activity Fee, General Service Fee, Experiential Learning Fee, Media and Technology Fee and Facilities Fee.
The Student Center Fee revenue pays for the amortization on the mortgage for the Student Center building and all salary and non-salary, operating costs necessary to maintain the Student Center building.
The Student Activity Fee revenue is divided between Athletics and clubs and student organizations.
The General Service Fee revenue supports services not funded by the State, such as health services.
The Media and Technology Fee offsets the cost of providing students with access to a growing range of computer technology and state-of-the-art instructional equipment and audio/visual media, as well as administrative technology, which includes but is not limited to, Web registration, advisement, online grade posting and billing.
The Facilities Fee supports routine maintenance of buildings and grounds.
The College reserves the right to change costs, dates and procedures at its discretion.
Non-Tuition Related Fees are supplemental fees that are assessed on an annual or semester bases.

The Nursing Program assesses a course fee for each lecture course and lab fee for each lab course. In addition, an ATI Testing Fee and a one-time Criminal Background Check Fee will also be assessed on courses specified in the Course Catalog.
Credit Card Service Fee

Note: A convenience fee is not charged if payment is made by electronic debiting of a checking or savings account (ACH).
Finance Charge
This is a supplemental charge that will be assessed against the account of any student with an outstanding Account Balance. This Finance Charge shall be calculated and assessed for each month that the balance remains $100.00 or greater. There will be a grace period of 25 days without finance charge on new charges. Each monthly Finance Charge will be calculated by multiplying 1.5% by the amount of the outstanding Account Balance. Finance Charges will not be assessed for students who participate in the Ramapo Tuition Payment Plan and have kept their account current. If a student has been terminated from the plan, he/she will be assessed a Finance Charge commencing with the next billing cycle.
