OISS: Programs Offered
Direct Exchanges
Our direct exchange programs are based on formal agreements between Manhattanville and other institutions which specify a balanced number of student exchanges annually. Students pay what they normally pay for tuition every semester at Manhattanville College (all institutional and federal money is available) and pay the cost of the room and board of the host academic institution.
Courses from Manhattanville direct exchange programs are calculated into the student's cumulative grade point average.
Cooperative Study Abroad Programs
*Most students are eligible to receive a maximum $5,000 of their Manhattanville aid towards the study abroad actual tuition cost.
Federal and/or state aid and loans can be applied to the cost of the remaining balance of Manhattanville tuition. If outside funding exceeds the cost of Manhattanville tuition, students have access to the remainder of that money to use toward the housing (room and board) cost of the study abroad program.
Courses from Manhattanville cooperative programs are calculated into the student's cumulative grade point average.
* Students attending via tuition remission or consortium agreements should contact financial aid to review their specific aid and eligibility.
Independent Study Abroad Programs
For students who cannot meet the criteria for cooperative programs, many independent possibilities exist. Summer is the perfect time to consider an independent program. In contrast to Manhattanville's cooperative programs, students in independent programs are not able to take their Manhattanville institutional aid. Financing independent programs relies entirely on the student's federal financial aid and personal funds. Credits for independent programs will be issued as transfer credits only in block format; individual courses and grades will not appear on the transcript.
