Students will no longer be charged the off-campus study fee that applied to prior class years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This \u201chome school tuition\u201d policy, which most of Bates\u2019 peer institutions follow, accounts for the variety of services and resources that Bates students receive to facilitate and support their off-campus study experience. These include evaluations of study abroad programs, program advising, academic advising, liaising with program providers, visa guidance, emergency response, risk management review, partnership management, transcript reviews and credit transfers, student support advising, and career planning. This policy also recognizes that approved academic credits received during off-campus study count toward a student\u2019s Bates degree.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Financial aid recipients whose off-campus study cost exceeds their expected family contribution will continue to receive the same level of aid as they do for on-campus study. If the total cost of the program exceeds Bates&#8217; single fee, students will be responsible for the difference.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">More information about how the home tuition policy will affect payment and financial aid steps associated with off-campus study for the Class of 2031 and beyond will be made available during the 2027-2028 academic year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:75px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<section class=\"wp-block-bates-shortcodes-highlight highlight-box is-style-blue\">\n<h6 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Finances and Funding<\/h6>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.bates.edu\/global-education\/pre-departure-planning\/finances\/\">Overview<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.bates.edu\/global-education\/pre-departure-planning\/finances\/finance-and-funding-information-for-students-in-classes-2027-2030\/\">Information for students in Classes 2027-2030<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.bates.edu\/global-education\/pre-departure-planning\/finances\/finance-and-funding-information-for-students-in-class-of-2031-and-beyond\/\">Information for students in Class of 2031 and Beyond<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/section>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:75px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Tuition Policy for Students in the Class of 2031 and Beyond who&hellip;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":5,"featured_media":0,"parent":5937,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"_hide_ai_chatbot":false,"_ai_chatbot_style":"","associated_faculty":[],"_Page_Specific_Css":"","_bates_restrict_mod":false,"bates_author_byline_override":"","_hide_page_title":false,"_header_override":"","_template_width_override":"","_dimp_site_id":"","_dimp_override_contact":false,"_table_of_contents_display":false,"_table_of_contents_location":"","_table_of_contents_disableSticky":false,"_is_featured":false,"_sidebarChoice":"","footnotes":"","_bates_seo_meta_description":"","_bates_seo_block_robots":false,"_bates_seo_sharing_image_id":0,"_bates_seo_sharing_image_twitter_id":0,"_bates_seo_share_title":"","_bates_seo_canonical_overwrite":"","_bates_seo_twitter_template":""},"class_list":["post-12893","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.bates.edu\/global-education\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/12893","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.bates.edu\/global-education\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.bates.edu\/global-education\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.bates.edu\/global-education\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/5"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.bates.edu\/global-education\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=12893"}],"version-history":[{"count":9,"href":"https:\/\/www.bates.edu\/global-education\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/12893\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":12918,"href":"https:\/\/www.bates.edu\/global-education\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/12893\/revisions\/12918"}],"up":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.bates.edu\/global-education\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/5937"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.bates.edu\/global-education\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=12893"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
