The university has publicly acknowledged this community and committed institutional support for Nepali students.
- Out-of-state tuition and fees for undergraduates run approximately $15,800–$16,200 per year (2025-2026), well below the national average for comparable US universities, making it one of the more affordable accredited public institutions available to international students on an F-1 visa.
- After graduation, F-1 students in eligible STEM fields, including the Computing Sciences MS program (Cybersecurity, AI/ML tracks), can apply for a 24-month STEM OPT extension on top of the standard 12-month OPT, providing up to three years of US work authorization without requiring employer H-1B sponsorship.
