¾«¶«AV

Financial aid may be available to ¾«¶«AV students who participate in a college-approved study abroad program. 

¾«¶«AV study abroad programs costs will be determined using ¾«¶«AV’s tuition and fees, and the housing, food, and estimated indirect expenses associated with each program. The International Programs and Business Offices provide the Financial Aid Office with non-tuition program costs which are used to calculate financial aid eligibility. 

If the total cost of the program is less than the cost of ¾«¶«AV, the ¾«¶«AV Grant will be reduced to remain within a student’s demonstrated need. Because students are not eligible for student work during the abroad semester, work study eligibility will be replaced with ¾«¶«AV Grant. 

Typically, the out-of-pocket costs to students and families with financial aid are similar to a semester on campus.

Students studying abroad in the Fall receive their financial aid awards in June or early July. Financial aid disburses at the beginning of ¾«¶«AV's semester, not when the study abroad program begins.

The process of re-applying for financial aid while participating in a study abroad program is the same as a typical semester at ¾«¶«AV: students must keep up to date with ¾«¶«AV student email for reminders of the yearly April 15 deadline for financial aid applications.
