International students do no pay higher university fees than domestic students. This estimate is higher than the current total cost of attending the University because it takes into account higher estimated travel expenses, insurance, and the possibility of a tuition increase for the coming year. In order to obtain a U.S. visa to study at the University of Rochester as an undergraduate, demonstrated ability to cover at least this figure is required.
