Budget/Resource Worksheet
Budget/Resource Worksheet
Consider the length of your exchange (part of the academic year or all of the academic year), the number of times you are likely to travel to and from your home to your host campus, and the cultural and travel/sight-seeing opportunities you would like to take advantage of while on exchange. Also note:
- Tuition and fees frequently increase from 5-15 percent per year.
- Room and meals frequently increase in excess of 5 percent each year.
- Financial aid while on exchange may vary from that which you currently receive.

In addition to costs estimated above, other additional expenses may include fees that are a condition of your enrollment (e.g., general service, laboratory, art and photography supplies, field experience, student teaching, internship, technology fees, computer fees, etc.) and other fees (e.g., application, orientation, field trips, NSE program fees, health services, parking, special events, student activities, athletics, etc.).
