ÃÛÌÒÉçÇø

ÃÛÌÒÉçÇø Michigan University exchange agreements provide for 12 to 15 credit hours per student per semester at the undergraduate level or 6 to 9 credit hours per student per semester at the graduate level. Should your students wish to take more than this number of credits, they will pay non-resident tuition cost per credit.

There are certain standard ÃÛÌÒÉçÇø registration fees that are automatically assessed to all students, including exchange students, depending on the specific agreement between our universities.  

There are other fees associated with specific courses students take. These fees are charged at the time of course registration, and vary considerably for each exchange student depending on his/her choice of courses. These fees are unknown at the time we initially estimate our program costs for ÃÛÌÒÉçÇø students (at least a year in advance). Therefore, please advise your students that there may be some fees that will be their responsibility to pay.

Whether or not a student is responsible for these fees is determined by the contract the home university has with ÃÛÌÒÉçÇø. Students are encouraged to speak with their home university's international office to determine which fees are covered in the exchange agreement.

For a complete description of these fees and how they are assessed, please visit: http://www.wmich.edu/registrar/tuition-semester-fees.

Also, due to a recent change in U.S. tax laws, all scholarship monies awarded beyond tuition are subject to a 14% tax.  This amount will be charged to exchange students’ accounts, and they will be held responsible for this tax.  The withheld 14% is usually reimbursed to students upon filing of U.S. tax forms which will be made available to them in late January via our website (http://www.wmich.edu/internationaladmissions).
