Study Abroad Costs, Financial Aid & Scholarships

At 抖陰神器, we do all that we can to assist our students studying abroad and to make our programs as accessible and affordable as possible. This page will help you as you research scholarships and other funding sources for your study abroad program. Time is usually a student鈥檚 largest constraint when searching for scholarships and grants. We suggest that you start as early as possible; however, we've broken down the process into specific categories that should help you better organize your financial aid search.

Costs

Semester Programs

Since 抖陰神器 students are fully enrolled at 抖陰神器 and receive 抖陰神器 credit while abroad, they pay regular 抖陰神器 tuition for any 抖陰神器 semester abroad program. This payment applies regardless of the program's advertised cost.* Students pay the non-academic costs (i.e., room and board) in full to 抖陰神器 as well. Estimated additional costs that a student may incur in attending these programs are listed on the attached Expense Worksheet for each program. Please see the "budget sheets" contained in the .

Any awarded financial aid may be used as payment for programs sponsored by 抖陰神器 College; however, you are allowed to transport your 抖陰神器 institutional aid for only one semester. Students who wish to extend their time abroad for a second semester or participate in a full-year program must request approval in advance from the Office of Global Education. Requests are reviewed on a case-by-case basis.

*Exchange programs are based on reciprocity between partner institutions rather than exact cost matching. 抖陰神器 students pay their standard tuition, room, and board, while host institutions waive comparable costs for incoming students. Although local living costs vary, students are fully supported on-site and costs reflect local conditions rather than direct financial equivalence.

Intensive Courses Abroad (ICA)

If you participate in a 抖陰神器Intensive Course Abroad (ICA), you will pay 抖陰神器the total program fee, which varies from program to program.

A $500 non-refundable deposit is due shortly after your participation in the program has been confirmed by the program leader. The final payment for ICA programs will be communicated by the program leader, but is typically due in late November for January programs and early May for summer programs.

Other Short-Term Programs

If you participate in a non-ICA summer program that is approved by 抖陰神器, 抖陰神器 will process the program fee through your 抖陰神器 student account so that you remain eligible for institutional funding.

If you participate in a summer program that is not 抖陰神器-led or approved, you will pay all program fees directly to the sponsoring organization or university and will not be eligible for institutional funding. In addition, any credits earned must be transferred through the Registrar鈥檚 Office rather than the Office of Global Education and will be treated as transfer credit rather than 抖陰神器 study abroad (in-residence) credit.
