Students participating on cosponsored programs are charged a University
of Minnesota program fee which is inclusive of the cosponsor’s program
fee, the University of Minnesota fee, and international health insurance. Based
on these additional services and benefits, the fee is higher than the program
sponsor’s published fee. The University of Minnesota fee covers the cost
of application processing, advising services, orientation, course registration,
grade transfer and posting for residence credit, and assistance with financial
aid when applicable.
