College Costs
There is more to the cost of college than simply your tuition and fees. The cost of education can also include indirect costs not paid directly to the college, but are still considered necessary for your education such as books and supplies and other living expenses.
Tuition & Fees
Tuition is calculated based on the number of semester credit hours which the student registers. It is determined by the student’s classification as a Texas resident, a non-resident U.S. citizen or a nonresident who is a citizen of another country. Students also are responsible for paying several fees that support college services and programs. The tuition rate varies based upon the residency status of a student.
Estimated Cost of Attendance
At Lamar State College Port Arthur, the estimated Cost of Attendance (COA) includes all the necessary expenses a student typically incurs for a full academic year. The actual COA may vary from student to student based on factors such as your residency, your course load, and your living situation.
Making Payments
A student must pay for their registered classes by the registration deadline. There are several ways to start making payments towards your education.
