TUITION AND OTHER COSTS

What fees are charged for the PLA Documentation Course?

The PLA Documentation Course has the same tuition rate as any other two-hour VSU course.  Students may qualify to use financial aid for this course, depending on the specific rules and regulations of their financial aid package. 

Is there a PLA documentation assessment fee? 

When students submit a documentation set (Portfolio) for assessment, they must go the VSU Bursary to pay a PLA Assessment fee based on the number of credit hours assigned each course. The table below designates fees per credit hours. Students then submit their receipt for this fee to the PLA Counselor who will submit their portfolio to the appropriate assessors.  Students must pay this fee for each assessment for which they apply.
