Other Financial Considerations

Housing Option

Students placed in George Roberts Hall will incur a supplemental fee ($1,450). As George Roberts Hall includes all meals, you will not have a personal expense for meals.


Lab and Field Trip Fees

Some direct-enroll classes may have one-off lab or field trip fees. You will be responsible for these fees, whether they are billed and paid by IFSA or billed to you.
