Please note that the UHM Study Abroad Center is not affiliated with any of the organizations listed below. Students are required to have submitted a FAFSA for the academic year in which they plan to study abroad. Students must be enrolled with full-time status in order to receive aid. See chart below for minimum full-time enrollment status. Starting Fall 2021, UH Mānoa will begin enforcing Course Program of Study (CPoS), which is a process to keep in compliance with federal regulations on financial aid. This means that financial aid can only be awarded to courses required for a student’s degree program. Study abroad programs do not fall under this requirement, but certain conditions do apply in order to receive aid. Below is a quote from the Federal Student Aid Handbook (2020-2021) regarding study abroad programs: “The study-abroad program does not have to be a required part of the eligible program at the home school for the student to be eligible to receive FSA funds, but the credits earned through the study-abroad or exchange program must apply toward graduation in the student’s program at the home school. In addition, students in the study-abroad program must remain concurrently enrolled at their home school.” For application and more information, please visit Financial Aid Services and check their lists of scholarships.
