Students enrolled in this program are eligible to take up to four courses of pre-major and major coursework at ¾ÅÉ«ÊÓƵ while pursuing an associate degree at CSTCC. CState2NKU students pay the CSTCC tuition rate to NKU for the allotted four NKU courses. Students taking classes at ¾ÅÉ«ÊÓƵ through the program will also pay part-time student fees per credit hour. Some courses may also incur specific charges from the respective college. Students pay for their CSTCC and NKU bills separately.
The four courses must be spread out over the span of several semesters. The number of courses a student is able to take at ¾ÅÉ«ÊÓƵ in a given semester is based on earned and in-progress hours. Students with 15 earned and in-progress hours are eligible to take their first course at ¾ÅÉ«ÊÓƵ. Once students have at least 30 earned and in-progress hours, they are eligible to take a second course at ¾ÅÉ«ÊÓƵ. After 45 earned and in-progress hours, students can take their last two courses. If a student has 45 or more earned and in progress hours but have yet to take any classes at ¾ÅÉ«ÊÓƵ through the CState2NKU program, he or she would be eligible to take two courses in the first semester of the program.
Students must never exceed the maximum of two courses at ¾ÅÉ«ÊÓƵ in any given semester through the CState2NKU program. Students enrolled in the CState2NKU program are eligible to take courses at ¾ÅÉ«ÊÓƵ that are not offered at CSTCC. While enrolled in NKU courses through the program, students are not eligible to take courses at ¾ÅÉ«ÊÓƵ above and beyond the CState2NKU program courses.
