How much does the HPE Program cost? 

• UGHE believes that a student’s financial capacity should not determine her or his ability to become a global health leader, and the University was founded on the principle that its graduates should use their knowledge to positively impact the development of Rwanda and beyond.  

What is included in my tuition?  

• The University will only pay 100% tuition, housing at the UGHE dormitories, food, local health insurance for international students, all academic related costs, including projects and field trips.  

What materials will UGHE provide for my studies? 

• All enrolled students will receive access to all academic software. Additionally, students will be provided with all academic content in the form of books, manuals, online tools, and video and audio recordings throughout the program. These materials are of no additional cost to the students. However, UGHE will not provide Postgraduate Certificate in Health Professions Education students with laptops.
  

Additional Expenses

Additionally, students are required to bring their own personal items and toiletries (e.g. school supplies, laundry detergent, sanitary items, hair salon and barbershop services, phone airtime, etc.).
