Wanted to share my experience and ask if other people have recent experience with these "tuition free" courses at East Texas A&M/Texas A&M Commerce.
I recently applied as a non-degree seeking graduate student and enrolled yesterday in a graduate business class for the Winter Mini term. Checked today to see what I owe for the winter term: it's $1,506, including $126 for tuition and $1,380 for fees. The cost of attendance calculator shows a 3-credit course for a non-Texas resident being ~$2,700 and in-state being ~$1,500. It seems like I am being given credit for the in-state tuition and fees but have to pay the additional amount due for out of state tuition and fees.
I am hoping that there will be an adjustment in the next few days, but I am not holding my breath. Given that I am pursuing my MBA at UT-Rio Grande Valley and pay $1,417 per 3-credit course, I don't anticipate sticking with East Texas A&M if this persists. I also signed up for some of the tuition-free competency-based graduate courses for the spring. I wonder how those will work out, tuition and fee-wise, as well.
