Scholarships and Financial Aid
Studying abroad can fit into your student budget. If you attend Champlain Abroad or a Champlain exchange program, you pay your Champlain tuition and housing directly to Champlain and you are responsible for all other costs such as visa, airfare, travel, entertainment, etc. If you attend a third party program, you pay Champlain tuition and housing, and may also pay for a meal plan if the program offers meals. Please see the specific program for details of what is included. Note that you are eligible to take your federal financial aid package with you, however, federal law prevents students from earning work study funds while abroad.
Remember that currencies fluctuate and unforeseen expenses may come up, so be prepared for extra costs. Champlain is not responsible for additional costs that may arise during your study abroad experience. Be sure to check what is and what is not included in the fees that you are paying.
