Expense calculator

These figures are designed to assist students with financial planning but are only estimates based on past students’ experiences. They do not include any entertainment or vacation travel costs. Meal costs estimated above are estimates for meals not provided as part of the program, where applicable. Please contact your IFSA-Butler program coordinator to find out how many meals, if any, are included as part of the program.

The above numbers are general estimates of expenses during a summer program abroad. We recommend taking into account your current spending habits, the cost of living in your host country, and the current exchange rate. Your program coordinator can be helpful as you attempt to work on a personal budget for your experience abroad.

† Personal Miscellaneous estimates cover general expenses of college life, including laundry, course supplies, photocopying, toiletries, snacks, personal care, etc.

All costs are in U.S. dollars.
