Notes:
Since the students who are participating in the program will be fully enrolled at Emory and receive Emory credit, they will be charged regular Emory tuition for participation in the program. The tuition bill will come from the Student Accounts and Billing Office during the normal billing cycle for the semester. The non-refundable $300 application deposit will be applied towards tuition. Existing federal and Emory-based financial aid will be applied towards the total program costs. Please review the Tuition and Financial Aid section of the Education Abroad Website.

The "billable subtotal" above lists the charges that will appear on the Emory OPUS bill. The "non-billable subtotal" above lists the additional estimated expenses. All costs are subject to change.

Students will receive a separate bill from SIT covering non-academic program costs and will pay SIT directly. Estimated costs include housing (homestay) and meals.

The room and board fee covers the following program components:
  • All accommodations during the entire program period. This includes during orientation, time in the program base (Geneva), on all excursions, during the Independent Study Project, and during the final evaluation period.
  • Homestay (14 weeks with a Swiss or international family in rural villages and other communities near Nyon)
  • All meals for the entire program period. Meals are covered either by SIT Study Abroad directly or through a stipend, or through the homestay.
Additional expenses (to be paid directly by student) include airfare, books and supplies ($150), visa expenses (approx. $465), personal expenses, and local transportation.

Students with a high level of financial need may qualify for a waiver of the $75 application fee and a deferment of the $300 deposit; students should contact their Education Abroad advisor for details/eligibility. Students who receive the deposit deferment are held accountable to the same refund policy as those students who submit the deposit; you will be billed $300 if you withdraw from the program, in addition to any applicable withdrawal fees.
