The Compass Center works with each student and the Director of Financial Aid to help the student understand the financial commitment associated with studying off-campus. Financial Aid is available for students who study off-campus and varies for each program. NWC programs allow you to take 100 of your financial aid with you, while others allow 50% of your Institutional Aid to be used towards your off-campus experience. Please refer to the table below for a quick overview and contact the Compass Center or Financial Aid for more information about your specific situation.
