Study Abroad FAQ
- May I use Haverford financial aid for international study programs away from the College?
-
How is the amount of study abroad aid determined?
The Financial Aid Office employs our standard needs analysis and packaging procedure to arrive at a figure for your resources. Some students may be able to meet employment expectations abroad. Check with the Director of Study Abroad on this. If you cannot, you may be eligible for additional loan funds above our standard loan expectation to replace the job or summer savings expectation.
-
Are there special forms or deadlines I should be aware of in order to apply for financial aid for my approved study abroad program?
No. If you wish to apply for Haverford financial aid, please refer to the standard deadlines, forms, and procedures. Please be aware that the International Academic Programs Office may have other requirements and deadlines for informing them of your intent to attend an approved program with financial aid from the College.
-
What figures does the Financial Aid Office use to calculate my aid for a study abroad program? Are travel or personal expenses included?
The Financial Aid Office uses the costs compiled and approved by the Office of International Academic Programs. If these costs include travel or personal expenses, the Financial Aid Office includes these expenses in the costs used to determine a student's aid.
-
What happens if I am eligible for Haverford College Financial Aid and the costs approved by the Office of International Academic Programs are less or more than the standard costs allowed for an equivalent period of attendance on campus?
If costs are less, you will receive less aid. If costs are more, you will receive more aid. This is essentially the job of the Financial Aid Office when calculating International Academic Programs aid: using the standard procedures employed to determine eligibility for aid on-campus and adjust that aid up or down to reflect the costs approved by the Office of International Academic Programs.
