Why does my friend going to a different program receive more financial aid for study abroad?
In general, financial aid varies widely among students. The same is true of financial aid for study abroad. Your personal financial aid profile will be different from anyone else on your campus and this will impact aid for study abroad as well. Also, because schools classify programs differently as “spring” or “summer” courses depending on the timing of the program, eligibility for an increase in financial aid will vary from program to program. Be sure to have an advisement session well in advance of payment deadlines to know exactly what aid you can expect to receive.
