University of North Dakota

The University of North Dakota is a public research university at Grand Forks, globally distinctive for its John D. Odegard School of Aerospace Sciences. A secondary source describes the aerospace school as covering 'aviation, air traffic control, and unmanned aircraft systems', an unusual specialism among public universities and directly relevant to a Kazakh applicant interested in aviation. What is established on cost comes from a state-level source: North Dakota's public universities charge international students the non-resident rate, which at UND is reported at roughly USD 20,000 to USD 22,000 a year, low by American standards, with Grand Forks living costs adding about USD 11,000 to USD 16,000.
