Schedule at a Glance

Important Information Regarding PSU Graduate Credit!
1. Pittsburg State University graduate tuition is $208 per
credit hour in addition to the workshop fee. A maximum of six
credit hours per semester may be awarded for workshops—three in
each of 2 subject areas: Curriculum and Instruction or Special
Services and Leadership Studies. Payment for the college tuition
must be made at the time of the workshop. Tuition is $52 per .25
credit hour (half-day or evening workshop) and $104 for .5 credit
hour (full-day workshop). Tuition (but not workshop fees) may be
paid by credit card.
2. The option of PSU credit is a one-time offering. Participants
must enroll at the workshop, but once the workshop has started and
forms are collected, the option for credit is no longer available.
Payment for a .25 credit-hour workshop that is not paired with an
additional .25 credit-hour workshop will be refunded.
Graduate credit in Curriculum and Instruction (CURIN) is indicated by a single asterisk*; Special Services and Leadership Studies (SSLS) is indicated by a double asterisk**; Psychology (PSY) is indicated by a triple asterisk***.
