Study Abroad Tuition & Affordability
In order to give all students access to study abroad, SU has a home tuition model for all SU partner programs. Students studying abroad for SU credit are billed the SU comprehensive fee (tuition, room and board, technology fee, IM Learning fee, Student Services fee). SU ensures that tuition, room and board expenses are not charged to the student by the study abroad program.
