The Northwest Commission on Colleges and Universities shall compile and maintain a list of all member, accredited and candidate, institutions indicating both their tuition and fee structure for instate as well as out-of-state students, and the length of the program offered. This list shall be available to be mailed out to any student, institution, or member of the public upon request.

In addition, the Northwest Commission on Colleges and Universities requires that institutions indicate in their Annual Report submitted yearly to the Northwest Commission on Colleges and Universities any change in their institution’s fees or tuition rates. If there is a change, the institution is required to state the amount of that change. Further, the Commission requires that the institution shall make that information about tuition charges available to students and the public by publishing it in the college’s or university’s catalog and other publications. Institutions should inform their students that they may obtain information about tuition charges at comparable institutions accredited by the Northwest Commission on Colleges and Universities by directly contacting the Commission office in Redmond, Washington.
