At some schools, but not all, Fall Semester coincides with our Fall Quarter. The Spring Semester typically starts in the middle of our Winter Quarter and goes through June. Costs Students pay their normal tuition to the UW as well as a small processing fee, and incur only minimal fees to the overseas institution. Housing, meals, health insurance, and airfare costs are the responsibility of the students for the most part, with the host school helping to locate or provide housing. Intensive foreign language instruction in French, Spanish and German is provided in Europe at a modest additional cost for students needing to increase proficiency in these languages of instruction.
Some scholarships are available for students who require financial assistance to participate.
Internships can sometimes be paid positions, which will help offset living costs. Courses of Study Descriptions of majors and courses at each institution are available on the WWW along with information about living arrangements, orientation and advising services for incoming participants. Your Global E 3 campus contact has additional information. It is recommended that planning begin one year prior to time of program placement.
