Can I use my financial aid (loans and scholarships) to help pay for the exchange? What if the exchange costs more than what I normally pay to go to UTC?
Yes, in most cases you can use all of your existing loans and scholarships. Some exceptions include special scholarships (e.g. music performance scholarships) restricted to the UTC campus. In addition, students who have Tennessee tuition discounts (from parents who work for the UT System or work as teachers in Tennessee public schools) can only use these discounts on tuition plan B (plan where the student pays UTC for its tuition and fees). Once a student is accepted by an exchange school, UTC’s NSE Office will send UTC’s Financial Aid Office a letter stating how much it will cost the student to participate in an exchange to that particular university. UTC’s Financial Aid will use this information to determine whether the student qualifies for additional loans to pay for any added costs.
