Here is a list of resources to help you get started.
Review Costs
Our fee structure reflects the belief that all students, including those receiving financial aid, should have the opportunity to study abroad. Students on financial aid are required to apply for available scholarships.
International Students
International students studying at Haverford on an F-1 visa have specific requirements when it comes to studying abroad. Make sure you understand the process and policies before applying.
F-1 students studying abroad in the spring semester on a Haverford-approved program who are planning to intern in the US in the summer are eligible to apply for Curricular Practical Training work authorization from abroad and participate in the Experiential Learning Credit Program.
