If you are coming to UW as an Exchange student (paying your home university tuition), you will NOT pay UW tuition or most fees.
You will be required to pay:
· Exchange Student Fee ($50)
· International Student Fee ($100)
· Student Insurance (approximately $1500 per semester)
· Housing*
· Meals*
*Students participating in an ISEP program do not pay these to UW. They are paid to your home university or directly to ISEP. If you do not know what ISEP is, you are not an ISEP student.
If you enroll in an online course, you will be required to pay a Distance Delivery Fee for the online course. This fee will not be waived, even for ISEP students. If you do not wish to pay a Distance Delivery Fee, you must enroll in on-campus courses only.
If you are coming to UW as a Study Abroad (fee paying) student, you will pay 150% or (100%) of In State Resident tuition and fees, in addition to the charges listed above.
All international students are required to have health insurance
Information about the insurance policy can be found online. It is your choice whether to purchase a supplemental policy from your home country, but unless you are an ISEP student, you will likely be required to purchase the international student insurance provided by UW.
Important:
o When you register for classes, tuition and fees will automatically be charged to your student account.
o If you are an exchange student, these fees will be removed after UW’s registration drop/add period.
o This is not generally complete until the end of September for the fall semester, or late February for the spring semester.
If you are an exchange student, do not be concerned if you see tuition and fee charges on your account; they will be removed eventually.
o Charges can be paid on WyoWeb with a Visa or MasterCard (there is a 3% fee for credit card use), Bank transfer at Flywire or with cash at the Cashier’s Office on campus in Knight Hall (the Cashier’s Office does not accept credit cards).
It is not necessary for you to pay before you come to UW. Payment can be made when you arrive.
o Payment due dates can be found on the Important Dates website.
o If you pay at least 1/3 of your student bill when you arrive, you will be enrolled in a payment plan.
o You can then pay the balance due over the next two months (for a total of 3 payments).
o There is a $15 charge to be enrolled in this payment plan.
To see your charges:
o Log in to WyoWeb
o Go to Your Student Account, and Account Summary by Term
o Your charges will be listed there (If you are an exchange student, do not be concerned if you see tuition and fee charges on your account; they will be removed eventually.)
o If you would like to pay by credit card, there is an Online Payments link near the top of the page.
o You will be able to enter the amount you would like to pay.
Textbooks are expensive, and the process of identifying your required materials, shopping for the best prices, and ensuring you have them all by the first day of class is chaotic.
Starting in Fall 2024, StartRight+ will address these problems, making sure you have the option to access all your required course materials at the start of the semester, at an affordable and consistent price.
All required course materials will be provided digitally, where available, directly through WyoCourses/Canvas. Course materials that are available in print format can be picked up from the University Store.
StartRight+ creates a price ceiling, setting the maximum amount a student would need to pay for their required course materials each semester at $275.
With StartRight+, you won’t have to worry about making sure you find the right edition of the required book, navigating new, used, and rental options for the best price, or making sure your orders are shipped to you on time (even if you add/drop classes once the semester starts).
If you do not wish to participate in StartRight+, you must opt out by the deadline. Please see the FAQs for information on how to opt out.
