CHS offers a number of global experiences that may require the student to seek funding sources. Students are encouraged to explore scholarships, grants, and funding opportunities as early as possible. There are numerous internal and external options available, but deadlines and requirements vary widely. Attend the program of your choice interest meeting to discover unique funding opportunities!

NOTE: If you receive UD financial aid in the form of grants, scholarships and loans, your funding may or may not apply to IGS Study Abroad programs. Reach out to Student Financial Services to find out exactly what kinds of financial aid may be applied to your global program. The CGPS Study Abroad office provides additional information on financial aid here. For more general questions about budgeting specifically for study abroad, CGPS offers advice for UD students.
