How can I determine an appropriate student application fee to charge?
Begin with the current application fee due to the NSE Central Office. Next, analyze your fiscal need. Are you fully funded by your campus/office budget, or do you need to raise fees to cover the costs for NSE membership or the conference, etc? Divide the fiscal need by the expected number of applicants and add that figure to the NSE application fee. Error slightly on the high side for financial safety reasons. The current average student application fee is $125.
