Notes:
This document outlines the estimated costs of studying abroad for Fall 2023.   Students who will be studying on this program for the entire academic year should double relevant costs listed above (example: meals). For students studying abroad for two consecutive semesters compromising a full academic year, the Off Campus Study Fee is only assessed one time. For current and up-to-date costs, please check your host institution’s website. Also stay updated with exchange rates as they fluctuate on a daily basis. XE.com is an on-line currency converter.

In addition to the costs listed above, all Washington College students studying abroad pay Washington College tuition to Washington College for the semester abroad. All scholarships, grants, and loans stay active while abroad through a Washington College exchange program.

Special Notes:
  • Off-Campus Study Fee:  $200 of this fee is paid as the deposit to study abroad.  The remainder will be billed to the Washington College student account for the semester abroad.
  • Meals & Personal Expenses:  No meal plan. The university does have a cafeteria and on-campus restaurant.  These costs are estimated.
  • Security Deposit: This is a housing security deposit.
  • Additional Living Costs: Room costs are paid to Washington College, but students can opt to get air conditioning at an extra cost of HK$330, which is currently the equivalent of $42.04 per semester.  This cost is an estimate based on the current exchange rate.
  • Reported student expenditures:  Estimated; varies by student
  • Bedding set / linens: Students have the option to rent linens for their room from Lingnan University rather than bringing or buying their own.
This document will be updated with estimated costs when they become available, but are unlikely to change drastically.
