<p>I go to the university of Denver and I am considering transferring to another four year university. However, I am trying to find a school that has study abroad programs similar to DU's Cherrington Global Scholars in which studying abroad is the same cost as normal tuition with scholarships included. Does anyone know of any?</p>
<p>Daughter is a student at William and Mary. Their study abroad is reciprocal…same costs and scholarships apply.</p>
<p>Hey, I took a look at your school’s website. Best thing about DU is that you can enroll in a non-DU program – which means you have a lot of options and you can study abroad pretty darn cheap. Where are you planning to transfer? I am just looking into all of this but keep in mind that a lot of universities use other companies to organize study abroad programs for a consortium of colleges (which means it doesn’t matter where you go if those schools use those companies), and that a lot of state schools have more affordable programs if they charge the equivalent of their regular tuition (and you’re a resident of that state).</p>
<p>Also, think of this: the Sorbonne in Paris is a great university. How much does it cost for you to enroll directly into a Sorbonne program for foreigners (could be language study, could be language + electives, whatever)? The answer is: a lot cheaper than US universities are gonna charge you. (Look up the programs at the Sorbonne just as an example and to get oriented.)</p>
<p>Now, think also that many US universities send their study abroad groups to, let’s say, the Sorbonne…but a state university might charge $7,000, while a private university might charge $20,000, and another private university might charge $15,000. </p>
<p>I am making these numbers up, but what I have seen is that, as my dad would say, “there is great disparity” among the different schools that send you to…the same place.</p>
<p>Most schools, wherever you go, will let you use your financial aid towards study abroad – its getting more common, too, I think. But remember, even if you pay “regular tuition”, you’re paying a heck of a lot more than the host schools charge the universities!</p>
<p>Hit me back with more info, I am really curious about this stuff and the more I dig in to it, the more interesting stuff I find!</p>
