The basic formula: take the program's number of required credits and multiple that by the appropriate credit hour rate per the chart below. Then, add the supplemental program fee to that. This combination of fees will cover enrollment in classes, housing, most or all meals, excursion lodging and transportation, admissions and entry fees, some or all books and other program activities. Consult program directors for complete details.

NOTE: Airfare to and from your destination is not included in the fees.

Tentative program fees for 2024 short-term programs will be not be finalized until mid-March after the enrollment and course registration processes for summer classes is complete. The program fee will be added to each student participant's account by mid-April. Individual supplemental program fees are projected on the basis of the following:

  • Estimated costs for accommodations, meals, admissions and transportation.
  • Currency exchange rates.
  • The total number of students enrolled.

Tuition amount will be posted to each student participant's account upon the student's enrollment in the required courses.

A limited amount of financial aid and scholarships based on merit, need and other criteria are available to JMU students. Also see: Summer Financial Aid Information.

Deposits are non-refundable, non-transferrable, and cannot be deferred to other study abroad programs.
