Financial
Aid:
Eastern
Michigan University students who qualify for financial aid may
apply it to this program. Appropriate arrangements must be made
with the Office of Financial Aid, 403 Pierce Hall. Thanks to financial
aid, study abroad is affordable for almost all students, provided
that you meet all the eligibility requirements. You can take advantage
of a wide array of state, Federal, EMU institutional and private
sources of aid. The entire cost of a program, including transportation
to and from the program site, tuition, fees and living expenses,
is taken into account when financial need is determined. This
means that your award will be adjusted according to the actual
cost of the study abroad program. The types of aid available to
you will vary. Visit the EMU
Financial Aid Website for an overview.
