J-1 Scholar Program Fee

The Office of International Student and Scholar Services charges a J-1 Scholar Program Fee to all scholars at PSU covering the period scholars are on campus. This includes program extensions. The fee helps provide support services, programs and special events for scholars while you are at PSU. 

The fee amount is $50 per 3-month period, based on the program dates on your DS-2019. 

 

How much is your J-1 Scholar Program Fee?

  1. Find your program dates on your DS-2019, section 3, and count the number of months.
  2. Calculate your your Program Fee:
    3 months or less = $50
    6 months or less = $100
    9 months or less = $150
    12 months or less = $200
    and so on. . . .
