Applicants will be notified of awards by May for fall and summer programs, by November for spring, and by December for intersession programs. Early planning with the help of your academic advisor will allow you to apply study abroad credits to various degree requirements. Most students go overseas in their junior or senior years, but sophomores are eligible for certain programs. Detailed information about the different programs is available in the International Programs Office. Costs Programs generally cost somewhat more than on-campus study.
Costs vary according to location.
If you are eligible for financial aid to study on campus, you may also apply that aid to study abroad. Any program costs beyond the usual on-campus expenses are also eligible for aid. If you do not currently qualify for aid, you should check with the Financial Aid Office to see if you might be eligible for any extra costs of study abroad. Scholarships 16,000 in study abroad scholarships are available each year to students registered at SUNY Cortland. National Security Education Scholarships are available for some programs as well.
