An iCourse fee is a course fee that covers the cost of technology, academic and student services related to online instruction. Online instruction requires increased space on computer servers, increased 24/7 tech support, and enhanced electronic learning tools. As more courses are available online, special online tutoring will become available and will be paid by this fee. The iCourse fee is $50 and covers the cost of courses taught online in traditional on-campus degree programs.
