**Students who choose different or premium housing during their program are responsible for cost differences.

***Passport and visa fees are based on U.S. citizenship. You are responsible for researching the cost and requirements for your country of citizenship. If you are required to travel to consulates/visa centers to obtain visas, these costs are not included and will be an additional out-of-pocket expense.
