Cowboy Fridays registration

The basic costs for a college education at Hardin-Simmons University, as at all colleges, have necessarily increased with living costs. The University maintains these charges at the lowest figure consistent with satisfactory service and sound education.

In order to give students and parents some security concerning the cost of education, HSU guarantees that the tuition rate during your first "Tuition Year" (for example Tuition Year 2008 is June 1, 2008 - May 31, 2009) will not increase, as long as you maintain full-time HSU enrollment during succeeding Fall and Spring semesters. (This agreement does not cover the tuition of Abilene Intercollegiate School of Nursing, Abilene Christian University, McMurry University, or Physical Therapy.) See the HSU Commitment for more details.

Payment of Accounts: Registration is not complete until tuition, fees, room and meals have been paid in full and/or satisfactory financial arrangements have been approved by the Business Office.
