The exchange program at Leeds is open to all regularly enrolled students at Penn State students majoring in architectural engineering, specifically those who are in the fourth year of their five-year program. Attendance at all orientation sessions is mandatory. Room and board costs are those of the University of Leeds and will be set by that institution. Accomidation will be in self catering flats so that all meals are the responsibility of the individual student. Round-trip air transportation is an additional cost to the student.
Students are responsible for making their own flight arrangements.
Textbooks and personal expenses are extra. International Education Programs and Studies has a cost sheet of the overall semester expenses and students who participated in the previous year will be available to provide their insight. The standard forms of financial assistance are available through the Office of Student Aid. Since students remain registered at Penn State, financial aid packages continue during the period of time students are enrolled in this program. International Education Programs and Studies coordinates closely with the Office of Student Aid to help financially needy students obtain funds to cover the additional cost incurred by study abroad.
