We highly recommend looking at theÌýGoing Abroad Within Your BudgetÌýpageÌýand theÌýFinancial Aidpage for information about sources of funding and strategies to make going abroad affordable for you. An education abroad advisor can also provide guidance and advice.

Although it occasionally happens, it is unrealistic to assume that you will receive enough scholarship money to cover all of your program costs. Apply to all scholarships for which you are eligible and hope for the best outcome! At the same time, have a back-up funding source (i.e. loans, family resources, savings) in case you do not receive receive as much as you hoped for. If you apply and don't receive as much as you need, we encourage you to talk to us about switching to a more affordable program or alternative scholarship opportunities.
