Financial Information

Traditional Undergraduate Semester (Approved Partner Programs)

Financial aid (federal and state) is available to be applied.
The transfer of APU institutional aid is not available. It is manually removed for your study away semester and then automatically reinstated for following semester(s). APU Institutional Aid includes aid such as President's/Dean's/Provost's/Director's/Founder's/M.E.L. scholarships, Faculty/Staff Award, Honors/APU Grants, etc. Since students are going to a non-APU program, APU Institutional Aid cannot be used. In recognition of the financial challenges this creates, APU has agreed to charge students the lower program tuition cost instead of APU tuition. We recognize this does not cover all differences, but it is meant to assist with the cost.
Ex: Oxford Semester

Traditional Undergraduate Semester (Exchange Programs)

Traditional Undergraduate GO Terms - Fall Term & Spring Term

Usually, no financial aid is available for undergraduate GO Term programs. In the event that a GO Term program occurs within a term break (e.g., mid semester break), study away tuition may be combined with the semester block tuition rate for up to 18 units (additional program and insurance fees would still apply). Your program packet/info has the original program costs and financial aid information. It also describes if any type of financial aid is accessible for your program. Access them at their program page and then scroll to the "Financial Information" section.

Traditional Undergraduate GO Terms - Summer Term

Usually, no financial aid is available for undergraduate GO Term programs. If you have “unused” financial aid on your account you might be able to apply it to a summer program but only if confirmed by your financial aid counselor in Undergraduate Enrollment Services Center.
