I'm thinking of applying to UNLV and I want to know how much the application fee is. Are there any fee waivers available for certain students? What should I consider if I have multiple applications?
UNLV (University of Nevada, Las Vegas) has an application fee of $60 for domestic students and $95 for international ones. It's an extra cost you should factor in when considering how many schools you'll apply to, as those fees can add up if you're applying to multiple colleges.
Fee waivers are indeed available for eligible students. These typically apply to students who demonstrate financial need, are part of certain organizations, or meet specific situational conditions.
For instance, financial need-based waivers might be applicable for students who already have an SAT or ACT fee waiver, are eligible for the Federal Free or Reduced Price Lunch program, can provide a letter stating their family income is within the Income Eligibility Guidelines, or are enrolled in a federal, state, or local program that aids students from low-income families.
Apart from that, students who are veterans, active military personnel, or the spouses and dependents of veterans or active military personnel might be eligible to have their application fee waived.
Before applying, make sure to investigate these factors and work on your eligibility, if applicable. This step could help you save some money, especially if you are applying to multiple programs or schools.
