| Home | Education Abroad ProgramsThe two basic types of programs for students are identified as Education Abroad and Exchange. Education Abroad programs may be semester-long, year-long, or short-term (summer or winter inter-session.) These programs consist of courses aimed towards a particular course of study and are taught by faculty of the host institution or by visiting faculty. Students normally pay tuition to the foreign institution through the sponsoring college. Financial assistance, such as federal student loans and Pell grants, may be available. Student exchange programs provide similar opportunities. CUNY students attend an overseas institution for a semester or academic year in exchange for foreign students who enroll at a CUNY college. CUNY students generally pay CUNY tuition to their own CUNY college. Under current law, the State Tuition Assistance Program (TAP) may be applied to such exchange programs. Students are also eligible for federal student loans and Pell grants. In order to determine which financial aid they are eligible for, students must see a financial aid officer at their home college.
