Financial Aid & Scholarships for Study Abroad Programs

It is important to stay organized when planning for your finances abroad. Studying abroad demands effort and dedication. You need to analyze, along with your parents, what is your financial budget due to the extra costs of studying abroad. Costs to consider include airline tickets, health insurance, tuition, housing, visas, and traveling on breaks and weekends. There are many affordable options for study abroad. First, you need to understand the cost-benefit of each option you have, but there is a viable option for every budget.

COVID-19 Disclaimer and Updates

In accordance with the university’s policies on international travel, Stevens Institute of Technology has suspended all study abroad and international exchange programs for the spring 2021 semester. In the meantime, we are promoting virtual international opportunities for Summer 2021. International students and any Stevens students who live abroad may “study abroad at home” with approval from the Office of International Programs and by following all required steps.

Financial Aid Options

Stevens’ institutional aid may be used for specific exchange partner programs.
