Students using financial aid are required to pay the Application Fee, Program Deposit and Security Deposit. A financial aid award letter MUST be sent to the California office in order to determine how much will apply to the Program Cost balance and before your application is considered complete.
NOTE: If your financial aid award is not sufficient to cover all Program Costs, the remainder must be paid by the regular payment deadline dates.
Financial aid monies will be applied last and any balance must be paid by the earlier due date. SAI will delay the final payment amount (based on your financial aid award) until the date your aid disburses.
After acceptance, you will receive by email a Financial Aid Form that must be completed and signed by you AND your school or financial aid provider, and returned to the SAI office.
If you intend to use financial aid, check with your school to determine if a Consortium Agreement must be completed between your college and Study Abroad Italy. Those students receiving financial aid through their home college may be able to transfer these funds to Study Abroad Italy for payment of their FUA Program Cost. Contact the Study Abroad Italy office in California if you have further questions.
All application materials and payments should be sent to the Study Abroad Italy office in California, including consortium agreements or other financial aid documents.
