State and Federal financial aid applies. USF Grants and Scholarships and Federal Work Study do not apply to Category B programs. Student must see a Financial Aid officer to complete and sign a Financial Aid Consortium Agreement form. Category C Study Abroad Students may apply only through the Office of Student Enrichment Programs, University Center, Room 558. Approved course units will transfer, but neither the individual courses nor the grades will appear on the student's USF transcript.
Student pays cost of independent international program directly to the host institution.
Student may use Federal or State aid, except for Federal Work Study. Student must see a Financial Aid officer to complete and sign a Financial Aid Consortium Agreement form, and complete loan deferment forms as necessary. Unaccredited study abroad programs, or programs offered by unaccredited United States schools and agencies are unrecognized by USF, ineligible for financial aid, and it will be necessary for a USF student enrolling in such a study abroad program to complete a Leave of Absence form. A student receiving Federal or State aid should be aware that the Leave of Absence form automatically triggers the process for repayment of loans and any deferral of payment must be initiated through the study aboard program institution which accepts them, and again through USF when the student returns.
