5.        Kentucky — During the fall and spring semesters, a graduate student may take as few as 9 credit hours or as many as 15 credit hours and pay the one amount of tuition and fees for full-time enrollment.  For Fall 2002 and Spring 2003 the amount per semester is:  $2,173 for in-state residents, $5,782 for out-of-state residents.  During the 2 summer terms combined, a graduate student may take as many as 12 credit hours, which the student does who wishes to complete the 36-credit-hour program in 12 months.  Tuition is $1,828 for in-state residents, $5,036 for out-of-state residents.  To arrive at the reported figures for total cost of a dress, 36 credit hours, there was an assumption that a student would be enrolled full-time for 12 credit hours for Fall 2002, 12 credit hours for Spring 2003, and 12 credit hours for summer 2003.
