Financial Aid

In general, you are eligible to receive most forms of financial aid (except work-study) if you enroll in an education abroad program sponsored by an accredited U.S. or foreign university and continue to make satisfactory progress toward your degree. Even if you have not received aid in the past, you should consider applying for financial aid for the period of your study abroad. Visit the UNI Financial Aid Office to learn more or to fill out the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA).

The UNI Financial Aid Office and the Study Abroad Center work together to facilitate the application of financial aid toward the cost of participating in an education abroad program. The Study Abroad Center provides detailed information about program costs to the Financial Aid Office after the application deadline.

If you have any questions about the likely impact of participating in a particular program on your financial aid package or about the instructions and procedures to follow, you should meet with a financial aid counselor. The financial aid counselor works with you to adjust your eligibility if the program cost is higher than the cost of attending UNI.
