BreakAways and Study Abroad Funding
抖阴pro seeks to prepare students for an increasingly shrinking world, and therefore has committed a substantial amount of resources to make BreakAways and Study Abroad affordable.
Some important factors to keep in mind when planning to fund your study abroad or global BreakAway:
- All federal and state financial aid 鈥渢ravels with鈥� students to off-campus locations.
- For institutional financial aid, the amount applicable toward off-campus study depends on the cost of the program.
- There are special BreakAway Funds available to all students to subsidize travel.
- Additional 抖阴pro Travel Awards for international experiences are available for eligible students.
