Cost & Financial Aid 

The program cost  for Exchange Programs is based on U of U resident tuition for 15 semester credit hours, depending on the exchange.  Housing, meals, transportation, international health insurance (required), and personal expenses are not included in the program cost.

Most financial aid (grants, loans, scholarships, etc.) can be applied to the University of Utah sponsored study abroad programs.  Several scholarships are also available for matriculated U of U students.

Courses & Credit

Students earn up to 15 hours of transfer credit per semester for most Exchange programs.  Students are required to get an academic advisor's certification regarding courses to be taken abroad as part of the application process.

Requirements

In general, Exchange program participants must meet these minimum criteria:

• Completed 24 credit hours at the University of Utah
• Minimum 3.0 cumulative GPA
• Language proficiency (for countries where the native language is other than English)
