Financial Aid

To determine your eligibility and to obtain all necessary forms, check with Cleveland State University’s Center for International Services/Programs and Financial Aid offices.

Through Cleveland State University, you can apply for financial aid. Students from CSU have had excellent results applying their financial aid towards this program.

Students from non-affiliated universities or colleges should be able to apply their own financial aid to this program as well. We encourage you to discuss this with your home university’s study abroad or international programs department.

Non-U.S. students are not eligible for financial aid. However, you might check with your school to determine whether alternative financial resources are available for study abroad.

There are several sources of financial aid for you—the aid you’ve already obtained, aid especially for study abroad, scholarships, student loans, personal savings, and parental financial support. In order to receive some of this financial aid, you must apply, of course, and almost always, the aid application process involves deadlines.
