Tennessee residents age 60 or older, along with those who are permanently or totally disabled, may audit (take without earning college credit) a course without paying fees as provided by Tennessee law. To do so, the student must file a birth certificate or physician’s certification of permanent, total disability with the APSU Office of the Registrar. Forms will be duplicated and originals returned to students.

 

Tennessee residents who will turn 65 or older during the semester/term – along with students who are permanently, totally disabled – may register in courses for college credit at a discounted tuition rate. Students are accepted according to the space available. Students pay half of the regular cost per credit hour, with a maximum of $70 in tuition per semester. The Program Service Fee is waived, but students must pay any special course fees (online course fee, College of STEM fee, etc.) and textbook charges associated with classes on their schedule. Appropriate documentation is required. Contact the Registrar's Office for registration timetables and procedures at (931) 221-7121.

This program allows uniformed military personnel stationed outside of Tennessee to pay in-state tuition rates for credit ArmyIgnitED courses instead of more expensive out-of-state tuition rates. The waiver applies to campus-based and online courses. Students eligible for this program will be classified as “out-of-state,” but will receive an out-of-state fee waiver equal to the difference between in-state tuition and out-of-state tuition. The out-of-state fee waiver is available to spouses and family members of active duty military personnel.
