| If you have been issued a medicine email account please continue to use it. If you have not been issued one be sure to activate your UND U-mail account. http://und.nodak.edu/.
We will be using your medicine email (if you have one) or your U-mail email to contact you and ask that you use it to contact us.

| Tuition |
Students who are admitted to the CLS graduate level programs (MS or Certificate) and are not residents of North Dakota or Minnesota will be charged tuition based on the contiguous per credit rate instead of the out of state rate. Contiguous rate for 08-09 is $354.70/credit (without UND mandatory fees). If you are a resident of MN you need to complete the MN reciprocity form: http://www.getreadyforcollege.org/hesod/reciprocity/apply1.cfm
- IMPORTANT: Student Account Services does not mail tuition bills. To view your tuition/fees due go to UND campus connection.
- To pay your bill see the payment options offered by Student Account Services: http://www.und.edu/dept/studentaccounts/
- Note of interest: If you are an out of state (not MN) student who will be paying at the contiguous rate, campus connection does not automatically set this tuition and it is done by hand by Student Account Services (with information provided from our program) onto campus connection for you to view so we suggest waiting to pay your bill closer to January 20 so that you pay the correct amount.
