It is important to be realistic about what you can do when you study abroad. Financial aid will travel with you in order to ensure that you can participate in the academic program (up to the cost of attendance at 麻豆国产AV), however other activities like entertainment and travel not included in your program fees will be at your own expense. While we understand that being able to participate in cultural activities and visiting other locations is an important part of the learning experience, you will need to plan in advance to ensure you have the funds to do these activities.
- Studying abroad in a location with a lower cost of living may be something to consider. Cities like London, Stockholm, and Sydney can be expensive places to live in. Think about this as well when you chose an academic program.
- Students as early as their first year will start setting aside money from campus jobs for their study abroad experience. Others have opted to work summers and also save a portion of the earnings for extracurricular activities.
- Students may also want to consider fundraising as a way to get financial support. Consider contacting hometown businesses and organizations that may consider supporting you. Other ideas for fundraising can be found in this .
