Explanation of mandatory fees

  • Engineering Access Fee [back to top]
    This fee creates a UNIX account for off-campus students, providing access to the University's computing and library services.
  • Norman Topping Student Aid Fund [back to top]
    This fee provides assistance to local area, low income students.

  • DEN Fee [back to top]
    DEN provides a full scope of student services, including academic advisement, enrollment, homework processing, exams coordination and technology support to the DEN students. This fee supports e-learning infrastructure, delivery technologies such as streaming and downloaded videos, note capturing services, and access to interactive tools for courses. DEN supports hybrid courses (on campus and DEN students) and the fee helps support dedicated services for DEN students; staff for handling off-campus student enrollment, advisement and serving as the off-campus student liaison with other USC offices and departments; and exam scheduling and oversight.

  • Exam Proctoring Fee [back to top]
    Because USC exams must be proctored, DEN arranges for off-campus students to take their exams at certified testing centers. These centers may charge a fee (averaging $20 to $50) for their service. The centers require payment at the time service is rendered and students pay this fee directly to the testing
    center.
