Financing Study Abroad

Students who wish to participate in a study abroad program at OCTC must speak with a financial aid counselor so their eligibility may be determined. Grants and student loans may be used to cover study abroad expenses if eligibility permits.

If you wish to use your OCTC financial aid to help pay for a student abroad program, here are the steps you will need to follow:

• Apply for financial aid by completing the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) and meet all requirements for file completion.
• Meet with your academic advisor to verify the study abroad course is required as part of your degree plan at OCTC.
• Meet with study abroad representatives to explore the best study abroad options available if any.
