Off-Campus Tuition And Fees, June 2006 letter from the Office of the Treasurer

Students approved for off-campus study (OCS) programs who wish to receive aid
must go through the same financial aid process as students intending to remain
on campus. All financial aid deadlines and requirements still apply. Awards for the
fall semester are generally mailed in June, and awards for the spring semester
are mailed in November.

Certain conditions apply to OCS that may affect your award:

• Trustee Honor Scholarships and Grinnell Foreign Grants can be used for OCS
  but cannot be adjusted upwards to reflect increased costs.
• Tuition Remission benefits can only be applied to Grinnell-in-London and
  Grinnell-in-Washington OCS.
• Students are not permitted to work abroad. Therefore, Federal Work-study
  eligibility may be replaced by loans.
• Aid will not under any circumstances exceed the cost of attendance.

Students who decide to attend an off-campus study program NOT APPROVED by
the OCS Board are not eligible for aid through Grinnell College, nor can Grinnell
be responsible for notifying lenders that students have enrolled elsewhere.

All questions pertaining to financial aid should be addressed to the financial aid
office at 269-3250.
