Estimated Costs for Students Receiving an NTW Award

For non-resident students who have been granted an NTW Award, 75% of the non-resident portion of tuition will be waived, rounded down to the nearest $100. Note that awards through the NTW Program waive no part of the resident portion of tuition.

For undergraduate students, the non-resident portion of tuition from 2006-07 to 2012-13 has been approximately $7575. These amounts are subject to change for future academic years.

*Flat tuition & fee rate for students taking 12-18 credits per semester, i.e. the cost to take 12 or 18 credits in one semester is the same. Non-resident students pay both resident tuition and the non-resident tuition surcharge.

The figures above do not include MEDICAL INSURANCE, which costs $1,125 for 12 months of coverage, or BOOKS & SUPPLIES, for which students should budget approximately $800 per year. Also not included above are PERSONAL & TRAVEL EXPENSES, which each individual student ultimately determines. We estimate that students should budget at least $2,160 per year for personal expenses. Summer-related expenses are not included in the figures above.

Note that in the US, the average increase for university tuition is approximately 6% per year. In recent years, cost increases for UW-Superior international students have been slightly below the national average.
