Many schools offer or participate in programs that allow students to study abroad. The school must make some arrangements for these programs and ensure that the courses are approved for credit if students are to receive financial aid while studying abroad. Most forms of financial aid can be used during periods of study abroad. In some cases the financial aid office can adjust your student budget to reflect additional reasonable costs for foreign study and you and/or your parents may be able to get additional loan amounts to cover those additional costs.
