A non-refundable fee of $20 is required with any application for admission. Students who have previously been admitted to WSU and paid the application fee are not subject to this fee when they return to WSU.

The athletics fee is assessed to all students attending classes through the Winona and Rochester campuses. A committee consisting of members of the student senate and university administration determines the rates and the distribution of funds.

Course fees are assessed to all students attending courses that have additional course fees indicated in the class schedule. Rates are determined by the department chairperson and approved by the dean and the vice president for academic affairs. Departments use course fees to pay for costs not normally incurred in everyday instruction (e.g., greens fees for a golfing course or a transportation fee for courses with a field trip component).

The health service fee is assessed to all students attending classes though the Winona campuses. A committee consisting of members of the Student Senate and university administration determines the rates and the distribution of funds.

Several small fees arise from non-course related matters such as health service, credit by examination fees, ID card replacement fees, parking permits, and library fines.

Health insurance is available to all full-time students. Further details are available in the Counseling Center (Gildemeister Hall, Room 132).

Effective Fall 2004, all full-time students, including transfer students,  are required to participate in the Laptop Program regardless of the number of completed credits (students are considered to be full-time if they are enrolled in 12 semester hours or more). Students are required to continue in the program until they graduate or leave WSU. Part-time students are not required to participate in the Laptop Program; however, they can pay the laptop fee and receive a laptop computer. Please consult with the Office of Admissions or the Office of Student Accounts for current information. Complete information on the Laptop Program is available at http://www.winona.edu/tsc/programlaptop.htm.           

Payment in full for all tuition, fees, and residence hall charges must be paid by the payment due date published in the current class schedule (at www.winona.edu/class_schedule). Any payment accepted after the payment due date will be assessed a late fee. Students are expected to pay all accounts to the university when they are due. Failure to receive a fee statement does not release the student from payment obligations. The university is authorized to withhold the issuance of diplomas and official transcripts of credits and to deny students further registration until all money due the university has been paid.

The MSUSA fee is assessed to all students attending classes for college credit. The rates are determined by the Minnesota State University Student Association (MSUSA) and the state board office. Funds are used by the Minnesota State University Student Association.

The Residential College fee is assessed to all students within the Residential College. The rates are determined by the university administration. Funds are used to provide additional programs for those in residence at the Residential College.

The student life fee is assessed to all students attending classes through the Winona and Rochester campuses. A committee consisting of members of the Student Senate and university administration determines the rates and the distribution of funds. Areas receiving funds include the Student Senate, university clubs, and The Winonan.

The technology fee is assessed to all students attending classes for credit. The rate is determined by the university administration, and funds are used to support the student computer labs and academic computer services.

The union facility fee is assessed to all students attending classes through the Winona campuses. The rate is determined by the university administration and the state board office. Funds are used to finance the construction, maintenance, and daily operation of the student union building.
