scholarships and Funding
A student who enrolls in a ľ¹ÏÓ°Ôº sponsored Study Abroad program will be considered for financial aid as if they were enrolled at Lewis. A student who enrolls in a non-sponsored Study Abroad program approved for Credit by the Academic Department will be considered for all financial aid with the exception of any Lewis Institutional financial aid. You should visit the Financial Aid office to enquire how a study abroad program will affect your financial aid package and if you may qualify for any additional aid. For ľ¹ÏÓ°Ôº sponsored programs, the program fees are placed onto your student account and you will be registered for Lewis courses.
Program fees are available through the Study Abroad office. In general, the program fees for the semester and summer programs include tuition, housing, some kind of a meal plan, and any excursions that might be included in the program. Airfare is not included in the program fees for these programs. For Lewis Travel Study programs, the program fees normally include airfare, accommodation, museum entrance fees, and some group meals, but not tuition. In addition to the program fee, you will also be charged a $500 study abroad fee by ľ¹ÏÓ°Ôº. This fee will be placed on to your student account as well.
The Study Abroad office strongly encourages you to also seek outside sources to help in funding your study abroad experience. You should keep in mind, though, that the deadlines for funding sources vary greatly, from some requiring application only a few months in advance of the program to others requiring application at least one year before travelling abroad.
