Financial Aid
Semester-long: If you are receiving financial aid, you can use it during your semester-long programs. You should make an appointment with your Student Financial Services Counselor as soon as possible. They will assist you with the distribution of your aid to cover the additional costs of studying abroad.
Spring Break / Summer: usually, students will need to pay for these programs depending on the number of credits; however, some programs might have some guidelines to get a scholarship. Please talk to the staff representative of the program you are interested in or email us at studyabroad@pratt.edu to help you figure out the best way to go abroad.
