Santa Clara University

Study Abroad Fees - SY 2008 - 09

The price of quarter, semester, and summer study abroad programs is set by the Board of Trustees. Prices are established based upon the principle that the cost of SCU-operated programs and exchanges should be comparable to the cost of a quarter's tuition and accommodations on campus. The price of affiliated programs is based upon SCU tuition plus housing, program fees, and additional administrative costs. Due to these additional expenses, in many cases the price for affiliated programs charged by SCU will be greater than "wholesale price" advertised by the program provider. The difference in price is due to the additional costs to SCU which include site visit travel, risk management, academic assessment/accreditation, on-site student support activities, consortium membership fees, and other expenses unique to affiliated programs.

Financial aid and scholarships are available for SCU-operated programs, exchanges, and affiliated quarter and semester programs. With the approval of the relevant academic department, courses taken in SCU-operated programs, direct exchanges, and affiliated programs may be used to satisfy major, minor and core graduation requirements.
