Use the tables below as a reference for comparing the general costs of studying abroad with the costs of taking classes on campus.
You can reference a particular program’s Budget Sheet to compare exact costs. Budget Sheets can be found in a program’s online brochure for most programs (if you do not see a budget for your particular program, please contact UW Study Abroad). Once you are accepted to a program, this budget can be used to revise your financial aid to accommodate the additional costs of studying abroad.
