Student services fee

Students who are enrolled in 6 or more credits are required to pay the Student Services Fee at $377. Students who are enrolled in fewer than 6 credits are required to pay the Student Services Fee at $188.50. However, there are a few exceptions to this rule. These exceptions fall into two categories: exempted students who may pay the fee, and those that cannot be assessed the fee.
Exemption criteria
You are exempt from paying the Student Services Fee but MAY opt to pay it if you are:
- A non-degree-seeking student
- Studying abroad for the full semester
- Enrolled in programs annually approved for an exemption (check with your program office for more information)
*The above groups may elect to pay the fee by completing the Student Services Fee Assessment form.
You are exempt from paying the fee and MAY NOT opt to pay the fee if you:
- Are a post-secondary enrollment options student or concurrent high school enrollment program student
- Receive the Regents Tuition Benefit
- Participate in the Senior Citizen Education Program
Waiver Process
As a result of the Student Services Fee policy changes approved in June 2024, there is no longer a Student Services Fee waiver. All students are required to pay the Student Services Fee, regardless of course modality. Programs may request an annual exemption, check with your program office for more information.
Fee details
For more information on the Student Services Fee, see the Student Services Fee policy page.

Health insurance fee
If you are 1) admitted to a degree program, and 2) registered for 6 or more credits per semester (or 3 or more credits during summer term) that count toward the automatic assessment of the Student Services Fee, you are required by the University of Minnesota to have health plan coverage. If you meet both of these criteria you will be automatically enrolled in the University-sponsored Student Health Benefit Plan.
By requiring students to have health plan coverage, the University ensures all students have access to medical care and can maintain good health, which is essential for academic success. You may choose to waive the University-sponsored Student Health Benefit Plan by providing proof of enrollment in an alternative eligible health plan.
Please note that if you are enrolled into the Regents Scholarship Program or the Senior Citizen Education Program (SCEP), you are not eligible for the student health benefit plan. Contact the Office of Student Health Benefits with questions about eligibility for the Student Health Benefit Plan.
