Questions about the Study Abroad Airfare Grant.

What is the Study Abroad Airfare Grant? See Financial Aid for Study Abroad.

Why is the program only for undergraduate students studying abroad during fall and spring? A goal of the university is to increase full-time study abroad enrollment during the fall and spring semesters. We feel the grant will assist in achieving this goal.

What does it mean to demonstrate financial need? A student demonstrates financial need if their Expected Family Contribution (EFC), which is computed through completion of the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA), is less than the student's cost of attendance. Cost of attendance for students studying abroad will include any expenses related to the specific program.

What happens if the student does not end up studying abroad? The student will be required to pay the funds back to the university.

Does the student need to complete a separate application in order to be considered? No. To be considered, students simply need to complete a FAFSA to determine financial need.
