All recognized St. Lawrence University Programs Abroad charge students the same comprehensive fees they would pay on campus. However, airfare (in most cases) and spending money (in all cases) are additional costs. Students currently on financial aid will continue to receive it and may often increase their loans to accommodate extra expenses.
In order to help with the cost of airfare for students on financial aid, St. Lawrence has several funds from which additional financial aid may be available. Only matriculated St. Lawrence University students may apply for these funds. Financial need is the sole criterion for selection. These funds are limited and, in most cases, students are required to pay for the first $500 of the cost of the airline ticket. This form must be submitted to the Center for International and Intercultural Studies by February 20 for Year or Fall Semester Programs or September 25 for Spring Semester Programs.
The Center for International and Intercultural Studies administers some gifts to the university which are designated for student participants in our off-campus programs who need additional financial help. Applications for additional financial aid for off-campus programs are due April 5 for Fall/Year programs and November 5 for Spring semester programs.
