Yes, students can use financial aid when studying away!
When participating in programs where students still pay SSU/CSU tuition, such as SSU Exchange Programs, CSU International Programs, and National Student Exchange (Home Pay), students can use ALL of their normal financial aid!
When students participate in a direct fee paying program, such as USAC, our study abroad fee paying programs, and National Student Exchange (Host Pay), students are able to use federal financial aid, such as the Pell Grant and Loans, as well as some SSU specific financial aid and scholarships. However, some additional verification may be required by the SSU Financial Aid office.
Students who have other types of financial aid, such as Veteran's benefits and/or waivers, or CSU waivers, can also use those while studying away. Be sure to talk with your study away and financial aid advisors for more details.
