You should look at the finances of that… not from Florida, so don’t know the nuances of Bright Futures, but if you go during the school year any financial aid (need or merit based) will likely very well cover some or all of that abroad cost. You have to check into that at your school. If you go in the summer, you probably do it on your own dime AND you lose that summer of earnings if you work to make money for school. Start early on study abroad planning, the deadlines are often early and you have to play your schedule sometimes to make sure you stay on track to graduate.
