Financial Aid
Enrollment in a program of study abroad approved for credit by the College may be considered enrollment at Curry College for purposes of applying for federal and state student financial aid. Students seeking study abroad opportunities are encouraged to speak with a financial aid counselor to discuss their individual circumstances.
Study Abroad through Third-Party Providers
Students studying away through third-party providers pay all tuition and fees directly to the program provider. Students must send an invoice to Student Financial Services for funds to be sent to their program.
Summer Programs
Since financial aid is awarded for the fall and spring semesters, the only assistance available would be Parent PLUS Loans, private loans and Federal Pel Grants if you are enrolled at least half-time and Pell Grant eligible during the academic year.
