I’ve been looking at Arcadia and their abroad programs. A part I am confused on is the pricing. This may be common knowledge but I haven’t seen anything on it. Obviously they have different tuitions for studying t home and going abroad. My question is how much it actually costs. it seems like the base cos for abroad is cheaper and I know that can’t be right. So how much do you actually have to pay when you go abroad with Arcadia?
You should contact Arcadia’s study abroad office about this. They will be able to tell you how this works.
Are you sure it’s cheaper? Are you mixing up semester and year costs, or not comparing like with like?
It looks like the study abroad fee is 25,665 per semester, including tuition, fees, and housing charge (but not food/meal plan).
The equivalent for home students excluding meal plan is tuition 20815 + fees 350 + housing 4500, which adds up to 25665.

So the base IS the same, but you might end up paying more or less for food, (and other cost of living stuff like going out and new clothes) and you also have to budget for airfare and visas.
