Following are fees for Undergraduate part-time students who are in the New England Regional Program. How do I determine if I am considered a Massachusetts resident and qualify for in-state tuition?
Part-time is less than 12 credits a semester. You must change your enrollment status to part-time to adjust your bill by completing the Registrar's Request for Status Change Form. See our Undergraduate Part-Time Tuition Rate Sheet and Fee Explanation for tuition and fee details.
The New England Regional Program (NERP) allows students from the six New England states, who are enrolled in certain programs not offered by their home-state public college or universities, to pay a reduced tuition rate. Not all programs are available in the NERP at UMass.
