Tuition & Fees

CSN tuition and fees established by the Nevada System of Higher Education (NSHE) Board of Regents.

Please note: Tuition, fees, and other charges are subject to increase by action of the Board of Regents at any time before the commencement of classes (primarily due to budgetary shortfalls). Charges are subject to change without notice, so please log into MyCSN to review the most current charges and due date of each semester.

Below is a listing of the most common tuition and fees. For a complete listing, reference the tuition and fees section of the NSHE Procedures and Guidelines Manual.
