In order to make studying abroad accessible to all students, Lasell uses a home school tuition model for semester abroad programs. Lasell students studying abroad for a semester pay tuition, fees, room and board to Lasell, and Lasell pays the study abroad program directly. Financial aid is awarded as if the student is on campus full-time and living in residence. Institutional (Lasell) financial aid as well as state and federal aid is available on the same basis.

Students participating in a Lasell semester study abroad program are required to pay a $1,000 non-refundable study abroad fee to confirm their intent to study abroad in the following semester. 

Every student receives services covered by the Study Abroad Administrative Fee, such as advising on study abroad options, advising on details related to the host institution and country, assistance with program application procedures, faculty review of courses, visa and scholarship guidance, pre-departure resource tools, pre-departure orientation, use of office resources, and transcript processing. 

Upon receipt of acceptance notification from Lasell's Office of International Services, students will be given approximately 2 weeks to pay their Study Abroad Fee. The study abroad fee is non-refundable under all circumstances and represents a firm commitment to study abroad.

After a student has paid the non-refundable study abroad fee, that fee is considered an official commitment to studying abroad and is not refunded under any circumstances. Once a student has submitted an application directly to the host program, those cancellation policies must also be accepted. If for any reason a student is no longer able to study abroad after committing to the provider/program, it is the student's responsibility to pay any financial penalties incurred in the withdrawal. 

Tuition exchange and tuition waiver benefits do not apply to any semester in which a student studies abroad.
