Overview:

Cost

•  For students who live on campus and have a full meal plan, the cost for a semester abroad is approximately the same as the DeLand campus. Refer to the “Expenses” section of the most recent Stetson Bulletin for Comprehensive Fee information. Stetson merit aid, federal aid, state grants (such as FRAG), and other scholarships for study at Stetson are available for study abroad when the program of study is a Stetson Abroad program. Employee tuition benefits do not apply to study abroad programs. (In the event you decide to study abroad through a non-Stetson Abroad program, the financial aid you receive would more than likely not be available to use.)  It is important to contact the Office of Financial Aid to determine the best course of action for your particular situation. 
• Stetson covers basic expenses abroad including: tuition, housing, food, international health insurance, and some excursions.
• Expenses not covered include: travel to and from the study site (including airfare, train and bus travel), passport, visa, document mailings, and room deposits. Furthermore, meals in restaurants, personal travel, entertainment, etc. come at extra cost to the student. Participants are advised to have at least $100-200 per week abroad in personal funds available to them.
