How much is tuition?

Since this is an exchange program, you will pay CUNY tuition.

Do I pay tuition to Queens College?

No. This is a CUNY-wide exchange program, so you will pay CUNY tuition to your home campus.

Your Study Abroad Office will register you for 12 Study Abroad Blanket Credits, which will generate tuition.

• No ePermit is needed since this is a CUNY-wide program

Can I get Financial Aid?

This will depend on your package, but usually, students can receive Financial Aid for tuition for exchange programs since you would be paying CUNY tuition. TAP is not always guaranteed. You must make an appointment with Financial Aid to further discuss the details.
