STUDENT FINANCIAL SERVICES

Payments, Stipends, and Alternative Loans Any deposit to confirm a student’s enrollment (and the subsequent balance of the program fee) needs to be paid directly by the student to the Glavin Office Tuition will be paid directly to SFS (4 credits = $5,440) Up to $2,000 Education Abroad Grants will be offered to current need-based institutional grant recipients and full-tuition scholarship recipients to help with the cost of the program Students who receive a full tuition scholarship can use a portion of their scholarship to pay for the tuition cost Students can choose to borrow a Federal Parent PLUS loan or a private loan to help cover additional expenses

Future Academic Planning If students are enrolling in a Babson elective abroad during winter or summer, they may qualify for a variance from the flat rate tuition during their senior year, based on a reduced course load. If a student does receive a variance for reduced tuition, need-based institutional grants would not be impacted. However, full tuition scholarships would be adjusted accordingly. To confirm eligibility for a future variance, contact Academic Services. If you have further questions please contact your financial aid counselor:  A – G Michael Famighette  H – N Michelle Clifton  O – Z Carla DeLucia
