If you compare WESLI's tuition to other institutions in the United States, you will find that WESLI offers the best value. Because the cost of living in Madison is much lower than on the east or west coasts of the U.S., it is even more economical to study English at WESLI.
 Tuition for each full-time 8-week session (18-22 hours/week) is $1,995. Tuition for part-time classes (4-16 hours/week) is less. Please contact us for details if you are interested in part-time study at WESLI. (Students who will attend WESLI with F-1 visas must study full-time).
Other expenses during your studies include housing, food, books, transportation, and spending money.

Health Insurance
F-1 students are required to have health insurance. Medical care in the United States is very expensive. If you need to go to the doctor it will cost a lot of money if you don’t have health insurance. If you have health insurance from your own country, please bring your card or certificate to prove you are insured. If you do not have insurance from your country, you will enroll in the insurance plan available for WESLI students and pay the fee every two months with your tuition. Insurance for two months costs US$175. The insurance covers the cost for most medical treatments. However, it will not pay for general physicals, teeth, eyes, preexisting conditions, or problems caused by alcohol and drugs.
Spending Money
Spending money is money for activities such as movies, dinner in restaurants, and shopping. If you live like the average American student, we recommend that you plan for at least
US$150 per month in spending money.
