Tuition and Fees

The Wisconsin Technical College System Board and/or the District Board prescribe tuition and fees. Out-of-state students pay non-resident tuition except for residents of Minnesota and Michigan where reciprocity tuition agreements apply. Minnesota and Michigan residents pay Wisconsin’s resident tuition rate while attending Nicolet Area Technical College.

Tuition is to be paid in full by the published deadline. Payment plans are available through MyNicolet.

Tuition is due at the time of registration if the student registers after the tuition deadline. A student’s course schedule is either given to the student at the time of registration or mailed to him/her. A student is not officially registered for a semester until all tuition and fees are paid. If a student fails to pay tuition in full by the indicated deadline date, he/she will be dropped from all courses. Nicolet accepts VISA, Master Card and Discover for tuition and fees.

Students who are anticipating financial aid or other third-party arrangements to cover tuition and fees must complete the necessary verification and/or forms by the tuition deadline date. The Business Office handles all third-party tuition and fees arrangements. Questions regarding these arrangements should be directed to the Business Office, 715-365-4458.
