Study Abroad Programs???

If you are part of a study abroad program, what difference does it make in your tuition (generally speaking)???

Do they charge extra to the tuition? About how much???

Do study abroad programs require you to pay for the airfare, hotel, and such???

Or do they provide you with housing and pay for your airfare???

The questions about tuition really depend on your college. Most programs make you pay for airfare. Housing is also dependent on the program, as many foreign schools don't really have dorms like we do, so you would need to find an apartment.

All based on your program that you go with. And then that is based on your college. If you are really interested in it, look at the programs that your college offers. I know that most of them can be found on the internet and almost all, if not all, of that information will be provided for you. I was looking at that information for future colleges. It is very easy to find. If not, ask your advisor or the person in charge.

It really depends on the program and school. The program I'm going on this summer is a flat rate, and includes room and board and the flight to France. Also, I don't have to pay tuition at my school in addition to the program fee, I just have to pay registration fees (which are like, $450). Some programs make you book your own flight, or pay for your own room, or even both. Look up the programs you're interested in and see what's included.
