  • If the number of applicants exceeds 20, tuition fees will be charged the same with New Jersey State students; but if applicants are less than 20, the tuition fee will be charged the same with the standard of international students. Meanwhile, tuition fees are calculated in accordance to course credits applied in Kean USA.
  • The WKU tuition fee for this academic year will be refunded or subsequently charged based on “Implementation Rules of Interim Policy on Tuition and Fees”. The duration for calculating the tuition is decided by the student enrollment facts in KU provided by Students Career Development Center, in combination of the beginning and ending time of the courses. The duration for calculating the accommodation fee is based on the data provided by Student Affairs Office. For details, please refer to “Implementation Rules of Interim Policy on Tuition and Fees” (Appendix I and II). If student registers two consecutive long semesters (Spring or Fall semester) in KU, for calculating the tuition fee, their studying time in KU will be regarded as from the beginning day of the first semester to the ending day of the second semester.
