Financial Information

 


Click here for estimated program expenses.
It is essential that you read the following information in addition to looking at the cost breakdown.

The International Service Learning Office will register all accepted students; you do NOT have to register for your service learning course. Once registered, tuition bills will be sent out to the student’s billing address. Tuition bills are generally received in late November/early December for winter interterm programs, and in late May/early June for summer programs.

Program financial aid awarded to students through the Office of Internationalization will be reflected in the tuition billing. Social Science Foundation scholarship recipients will receive a check (sent to your address in Banner) for the scholarship awarded.


Withdrawal/Refund Policies:
• All withdrawals must be made in writing and emailed to isl@du.edu
• The application fee is non-refundable unless the applicant is not accepted to the program.
• The program fee is non-refundable.
• The participant is responsible for the airfare deposit, any airfare cancellation expenses, or full airfare, should he/she withdraw after airfare has been contracted.
• The participant is also responsible for any additional expenses that have already been spent on his/her behalf should he/she have to cancel prior to departure or mid-program.


Description of available funding:
All participants will receive a $400 Service Learning Scholarship awarded by the University of Denver in recognition of students’ commitment to service.

Students may also be eligible for some program need-based financial aid. If you wish to be considered for this aid, please check the appropriate box on your ISL application. If you do not have a FAFSA on file, please submit a letter of appeal addressing your financial situation. This letter should be addressed to the Financial Aid Committee in care of the International Service Learning Office.

Social Science Foundation Scholarships of up to $500 are also available. To apply, complete the SSF application and a cover letter addressed to the SSF Scholarship Committee. This application should be submitted via email with your ISL Project application. SSF scholarships will be awarded based on the quality of the application and demonstration of financial need.

Although financial aid granted during the academic year is not applicable for this program, students may consult with the Office of Financial Aid for additional aid or loan information. Participants may also be eligible for Community Scholars Awards & Grants designed to assist Living and Learning Community students pursuing meaningful research, service learning, or professional development opportunities which do not fit into categories funded by existing university bodies. Merit awards for undergraduate research may also be available through Partners in Scholarship (PINS). You might also check with your academic department to find out if additional funding may be available.

We strongly encourage students to be creative about raising funds to help defray the additional cost of participating in an international service learning program. To help you with this process, we have developed a fund raising guide.
