Paying for your Program
The types of financial aid a student can use when studying abroad depend on the type of program they choose.
- Signature: Students are allowed to see both Liberty institutional scholarships (including DGIA) and federal financial aid to finance their signature study abroad program while receiving credit directly from Liberty University. In these programs, students pay a set program fee based on location, Liberty University tuition, and the LU Send study abroad fee.
- Custom: Students are allowed to use federal and outside financial aid to finance their custom study abroad program by using a consortium agreement. In these programs, students pay a program fee set by the partner organization and the LU Send study abroad fee. Most major costs are included in the program fee, including but not limited to tuition, housing, meals or meal plan (depending on accommodations), excursions, and insurance.
Final financial aid awards are determined by the Financial Aid Office, Liberty’s General Scholarship Rule applies in all cases, and additional information is available in the Policies & Guidelines.
