Tuition and general fees for all academic programs are established annually by Brigham Young University. BYU is a non-profit corporation affiliated with The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, and significant portions of university operating costs are paid with the tithes of Church members.
In recognition of this support, Church members are assessed lower tuition fees than those who are not members. This practice is similar in principle to that of state universities charging higher tuition to nonresidents. Students are considered members of the Church if they have been baptized at any time during the semester or term.
Basic college expenses include tuition, books and supplies, housing and food (which could include rent, utilities, groceries/food), transportation expenses to campus and work, and loan fees if you borrow federal student loans. These costs are calculated each year and are included in your estimated Cost of Attendance, which is used to determine your eligibility if you apply for federal aid. Some one-time, less frequent expenses may also include the purchase of a laptop and needed furnishings for your living arrangement.
