Financial Aid for UNO Students
UNO students will be able to fill out the Summer Study Abroad Financial Aid Request (SAFAR) form. You can pick up a form in the Financial Aid office. Be sure you make an appointment with your financial aid advisor to discuss your financial aid package. We send a letter to financial aid with your estimated cost of attendance for the program after you have applied. Students with anticipated aid showing in WebSTAR are usually able to apply those funds to the program balance. Be sure to speak with financial aid and study abroad personnel to confirm.
