value/inclusions:
University of the People is a tuition-free, non-profit
institution. The University does not charge students to take classes, does not
charge for any reading and other study materials, and does not charge for
annual enrollment.
However, In order to remain sustainable, UoPeople charges
small processing fees for application and examination processing. Applicants
are charged a non-refundable onetime $10-$50 Application Processing Fee to
cover the cost of reviewing and processing an application. The amount charged
is based on the applicant’s place of residence – applicants from developing
countries pay a lower amount. UoPeople charges an Exam Processing Fee of $100
per end-of-course exam. These fees, including the projected maximum cost for
the entire degree program, are publicized on the website and in the Catalog.
For those individuals who are unable to pay their Exam
Processing Fees, UoPeople has created an innovative Micro-Scholarship Portal
that will enable donors to contribute directly to individual students in need
of assistance. Additionally, students might be able to apply for other
scholarships, such as a UoPeople scholarship, or the afore mentioned Western
Union Scholarship Fund.
