Financial Aid
All students should meet with their financial aid counselor to consult about funding of study abroad programs.
Students who submit the FAFSA are able to use their federal direct loans for summer, fall, and spring, although applying loans to the summer reduces the amount available for fall and spring semesters.
Information on alternative loans is available at https://www.xavier.edu/undergraduate-admission/Loans.cfm.
Parents of students who submit the FAFSA, can also apply for a Parent PLUS loan that can be used for summer, fall, and spring.
The Xavier Center for International Education offers links to Xavier scholarships and non-Xavier scholarships, some of which might be applicable to the Colombia summer program.
