Course Fees

Some courses require, in addition to tuition, field trip, laboratory, technology, and thesis fees. These fees, specified in the Course Schedule (advanced.jhu.edu/registration) for each semester/term, are payable at the same time as the regular tuition charges and are nonrefundable.

Technology Fee

A technology fee of $150 will be added for each online class in which a student registers.

Late Registration

Registration is open for approximately two months prior to the start of a semester/term, offering several ways for students to
register. Late registration starts the day after registration ends and requires a $150 fee. Check the Academic and Registration
Calendar for late registration deadlines. Students registering late should check the Refund Schedule. Students who wish to register
late can fax their registration to 202.452.1970.

Fee for Removal of an Incomplete Grade

Students who receive an Incomplete for a course are required to pay a $25 fee to have the I grade changed to the final grade once that grade has been submitted by the instructor. This fee must be paid to the Advanced Academic Programs office in Washington before the grade can be posted on the permanent record. No payment is required if the final grade is an F.

Continuation of Enrollment Fee

Students who are in a thesis course and do not finish the thesis in the semester in which they enrolled for it must pay a continuation-of-enrollment fee of $500 for each subsequent semester/term until a final grade has been submitted. Students submit a registration form with payment to the Enrollment Office. This fee also allows students to continue using university facilities such as libraries, and the Johns Hopkins Enterprise Directory (JHED).

Graduation Fee

The graduation fee is $100 and is payable upon receipt of a bill from the Student Accounts office. Student Accounts sends this bill in October to students who completed degree requirements during the summer term; in March to those who completed requirements in the fall; and in April to spring graduates.

Refund Policy

Students may elect to withdraw from one or more course(s) for a variety of reasons. Refunds are made in accordance with the refund policy and schedule for each semester/term.
