University Courtyard recognizes that for the majority of Fresno State’s student population, cost is an important factor in determining whether or not a student can attend the university. Fresno State administrators, the CSU Chancellor office and the state legislature determines the university fees and tuition. University Courtyard administrators review the residence halls operating costs each year. The information is presented to the Board of Directors and an increase is approved only if necessary. For planning purposes, rates typically increase from 2-5% each year. A new application packet is produced each year and includes the rates and application materials for the specific time period. It is important that each applicant reads the entire on-campus living application packet as information changes each year.

Prospective Fresno State students’ parents: Review the rate and option information included in the prospective resident section. The information in the Current Resident section does not apply to prospective residents. Your son or daughter must have lived on campus for the Spring semester to take advantage of current resident offers for the following year.
