Canadian Student Tuition and CostsManitoba and Saskatchewan are considered contiguous provinces, and residents qualify for a tuition discount. All other Canadian residents pay non-resident tuition rates. Our Cost Estimator has current tuition rates.

First, contact your province's or territory's Student Assistance Office to make sure UND is recognized as a designated institution. Canadian Student Immigration RegulationsU.S. Immigration regulations require Canadian students to complete the International Admissions Statement of Financial Responsibility form before an I-20 can be issued. Upon admission to UND and receipt of the form, an I-20 will be mailed to you. Present the I-20 to the immigration officer when crossing the U.S. border. The officer will stamp it and issue an I-94 arrival/departure card. Keep both the I-20 and the I-94 with you at all times. You need them to be in the U.S. as a student. Canadian students don't require a visa to study in the U.S. You will be required by Immigration to carry at least 12 credits per semester to stay in the U.S. Special permission for fewer credits must be approved by the Office of International Programs. Immigration regulations forbid you to work off-campus without special permission. When you arrive at UND, you must report to the Office of International Programs. They will photocopy your entry documents and activate your immigration record. If you fail to do this, there can be serious problems. The Office of International Programs is here to help you with academic, social, and personal needs. They will also provide rides to campus from the Grand Forks airport, bus or train depot.
