during the semester. Make your check or money order payable to the University of the
Virgin Islands. All payments should be mailed directly to Dahlia Stridiron, NSE Coordinator.
There is no activity fee required for the Sheen Campus on St. Croix.
NSE students have been extremely adept in exploring the many cultural offerings that the Virgin Islands have to offer. We look forward to meeting you when you arrive (instructions on how to get here from the airport will be available on the website later). Feel free to email the NSE Coordinators if you have any questions or concerns.
