AP Program Fees

Definition

The term AP Program Fees refers to accelerated online (AO) programs that have a contract with an outside vendor for services that include recruiting and admissions. The students in these programs pay a program fee in lieu of regular UTA tuition and fees. The program fee is intended to cover tuition and fees for those students.

These programs are in the College of Nursing and Health Innovation (CONHI) with the Gen Eds for these programs in the College of Science (COS) and the College of Liberal Arts (COLA). [Fund Code 3107]

Decision

The revenue from the AP Program Fees flow to the colleges teaching the courses. From those fees, the colleges pay for their contracted vendor and the colleges are taxed at approximately 45.7% to cover the cost of administrative/support units.

Impact

The revenue transparently flows to the college and then to the vendor and administrative/ support units that provide services.
