Sec. 54.545. FEES FOR CONTINUING EDUCATION COURSES. (a) The governing board of an institution of higher education shall charge a reasonable fee to each person registered in a continuing education course at the institution. The board shall set the fee in an amount sufficient to permit the institution to recover the costs to the institution of providing the course. (b) This section applies only to a course for which an institution does not collect tuition or receive formula funding, including an extension course, correspondence course, or other self-supporting course. (c) Subchapters B and D do not apply to a fee charged under this section, except to a fee for a correspondence course taken by a student who would qualify for an exemption from tuition under Section 54.341 if the correspondence course applies towards the student's degree plan. The governing board of an institution of higher education may grant an exemption provided by Section 54.341 for continuing education courses.
