OFF-CAMPUS PROGRAMS

Financial Info

Financing your semester off-campus may seem like an overwhelming task, but the off-campus office will help you navigate these challenges. Financing an off-campus semester varies depending on what type of program you choose. When you study off-campus for a semester, you make your payment to Dordt College instead of the program itself. You will need to anticipate paying Dordt College tuition, additional program expenses, and the airfare to the country.

Financial Information

For Level One Programs, students can apply all of their outside aid (federal, state, independent sources) and all of their Dordt scholarships and grants to the costs of their off-campus semester.

For Level Two Programs, students can apply all of their outside aid and approximately half of their Dordt aid to their semester off campus. Specific information can be obtained by contacting finaid@dordt.edu.
