Students pursue a better roadmap of Mars

The exploration of Mars is a major interest for the space community. However, current technology, such as the surface rover, is slow and isolated to certain areas of Mars. And satellites orbiting the planet cannot get the same image quality as equipment on the surface.

What is the International Student Fee?

The International Student Fee supports the Haenicke Institute for Global Education (HIGE) which provides a comprehensive set of services to all international students through the most appropriate delivery modes to ensure efficiency, safety and student success. These include admission processes and selection, immigration support and advising, credential and credit evaluation and transfer, all HIGE student advising, student insurance assistance, orientation and other student activities. The International Student Fee is $750 per semester (fall/spring) and $375 per summer session (summer I/II).

Are WMU tuition and fees still competitive? Yes. The implementation of the International Student Fee followed tuition adjustments that lowered the total tuition and fees level applicable to international students: a reduction of undergraduate non-resident tuition of over 50% per credit in 2017 and a reduction of graduate non-resident tuition of nearly 20% per credit in 2020.
