Questions about our Programs? Go to General Info page.
Can I work while I attend Salt?
Yes. Some students do work part-time jobs while attending Salt. In fact, Salt occasionally offers part-time student employment positions. However, given the high demands of the program, working as few as ten hours a week can be challenging, and working full-time is not possible.
I have never been to college. Can I attend Salt even if I have never enrolled in another undergraduate program?
Yes, so long as you have graduated from high school, you are eligible to attend Salt as an undergraduate student.
I have already earned my undergraduate degree. Can I attend Salt even if I am not enrolled in a graduate program?
Yes, you may attend Salt even if you are not enrolled in a graduate program. In fact, many of our students fall into this category. You are considered a graduate student if you have already received your baccalaureate degree, not because you are enrolled in a graduate program elsewhere.
What will I earn upon successfully completing the program?
Students attend Salt for one semester only for which they earn sixteen credits, if they are an undergraduate student, and nine credits, if they are a graduate student. If you have not yet earned your baccalaureate degree, you are considered an undergraduate student. If you have already earned your baccalaureate degree, you are considered a graduate student even if you are not enrolled in another graduate program.
In addition to credits, students leave Salt with a portfolio of the documentary work they completed during the fifteen-week program.
Does Salt offer internships?
Salt does not offer internships.
Does Salt accept international students?
Yes, Salt accepts international students.
Is there anything different for international students than for non-international students?
International students are responsible for securing the proper visa; Salt cannot do this for the student. Otherwise, everything is the same for an international student as it is for the rest of the student body.
Salt does not offer health insurance, and although we are an affiliate of UNE and UMF, Salt students are not able to purchase either UNE's or UMF's health insurance. If you need health insurance, you may want to check out ehealthinsurance.com, which provides information regarding short-term health coverage.

- International students attend the same program for which they pay the same tuition and fees as any other student.
- We register international students just as we do any other student.
- International students receive the same credits as any other student.
- International students, like any other student, can choose to audit their semester at Salt. When students choose to audit their semester at Salt, they will not be officially registered and will therefore not receive any credits upon completion of the program.
