Short-term faculty-led program costs do not include tuition and fees. The cost of tuition is reflective of the course/credit hours associated with the program. Students will enroll in the course during summer registration. Make sure you have consulted with your academic advisor to ensure the course will count towards your degree plan.
So what does the program cost consist of? It includes all accommodation, in-country transportation, all cultural immersion activities, international health insurance, and in some cases flights and select meals.
If you choose to participate in a direct exchange semester at one of our partner universities—or through an affiliated program such as USAC or CIS Abroad—the Study Abroad and Student Exchange Coordinator will guide you through an individualized budget that outlines all expected expenses. A $100 application fee applies.
For direct semester exchange, tuition is paid to Lamar University, while housing and other living costs are paid directly to the host university or service providers abroad.
For affiliated programs, both tuition and living expenses are paid to the affiliated program partners.
