Summer classes at Kansas State University will move online at in-state tuition rates and with significantly reduced fees.
The move was announced this (MON) morning in continued response to the COVID-19 pandemic. K-State Provost Charles Taber says students will pay a single standard reduced online fee of $70 per student credit hour for the summer courses. The university is eliminating the campus privilege fee, academic infrastructure fee and the summer school fee.
Taber says the decision was made now to give faculty and students enough time to prepare and prevent a disruption similar to what was experienced in March. He says doing so will help the university remain attractive to future students and help current students maintain progress toward a degree.
No plans have been made beyond the summer semester. The university is holding out optimism that campuses will resume normal operations in time for the fall.
