Tuition
Settlement
Universidad Industrial de Santader (UIS) will conduct necessary inquiries into databases of public and private entities throughout the student’s enrollment in academic programs at UIS. This is to verify the accuracy of information provided by students, as well as the authenticity of documentation submitted for tuition calculation purposes.
If a student presents inaccurate or incomplete information that results in a reduction of tuition fees, discounts, or exemptions from payment, it will be considered a serious offense. The penalty for such actions may result in expulsion following regulatory procedures, in addition to potential legal actions (Agreement 032 of 1996 of the Superior Council).
