Tuition and Program Fee

Program costs are estimates and subject to change up to the program commitment deadline.

As institutions around the world determine program costs at different times, it is difficult for Education Abroad to provide actual cost information until shortly before the beginning of a program. You are encouraged to consult this document on a regular basis as it is frequently updated with the most current cost information and billing information available.

Students are assessed the standard University Park Penn State Tuition and Technology Fee, an Education Abroad Administrative Fee, and an Educaiton Abroad Program Fee.

Student Visa Cost

The actual cost of the visa will vary depending on the type of visa required and the student's country of citizenship.

For exact pricing, students should contact directly the nearest Consulate for the host country.
