Online Grad at App include Athletic fees?

Unread post by biggie » Tue Jul 12, 2022 9:41 am

Curious if anyone has done online grad school and if that would include student access to games?

Just got accepted so was curious.

Not sure if anything has changed but I completed my MPA in one of the "off the mountain" cohorts in 2011, in a seated format, and I did not pay any athletic fees...so no student ticket options at the time.

That is what I figured. Guess I'll find out more soon.

And I should add that my wife is starting the online Master of School Administration (MSA) program in a few weeks and I asked if she had noticed anything about athletic fees and she mentioned that she had not noticed those popping up anywhere.

Sounds like we may have discovered a new revenue source!

I assume you are saying this in jest, but just in case you are serious ...

It would be nice to be an option for those that would like to opt-in but in no way should it be required for an on-line student far enough away that is is just not going to be an option to attend games. We need not be Liberty, but we do need to be honest and fair about fees. Someone that clearly is not going to have a chance to use the resources the fees pay for should not be paying the fee whatever the fee is. Full stop.
This is my very generic signature added to each post.

Yeah, definitely jest. I was wondering of someone would take the bait though ;)

And update on my search.

Seems online students are not charged athletics fees. But they can pay them additionally and have the access. I’ve been trying to call student accounts all day with no luck so far.

Believe it is about $200 for the semester? So may not be worth it for me as I may not make more than 1 or 2 games this year.

Hey Biggie, congrats on being accepted to grad school! I was recently accepted to complete my undergrad online (10 year plan, woo!) and this was one of the first questions I researched lol. Like you said, we can opt in to pay athletic fees, but I was unsure how many games I was going to attend so it didn't make sense for me. I thought it was more than $200, maybe I'm not remembering correctly but I thought it was closer to $450. Either way, best of luck in your studies.
GO! FIGHT! KICK ASS!

I missed this the first time around, but I am doing an online grad program at app, and athletics were not a part of it just the tuition.

I haven’t got confirmation of amount yet. Just was I saw when searching. Still hope to get someone at student accounts to answer to confirm.

Just talked to student accounts and they said it is no longer an option to add the athletic fees for online students.
