FAFSA: Eligible universities & colleges in Europe
Board of European Students ... by École polytechnique - J.Barande, CC BY-SA 2.0, modified
If you are from the United States and want to get your degree abroad, you may be eligible for financial aid through the FAFSA program.
Whether or not you are eligible for funding through FAFSA depends on a variety of factors. One of them is whether the overseas university you want to apply to is recognised by the U.S. Department of Education for the FAFSA scheme.
Read more about how FAFSA works for studying abroad
The table below contains all international schools that are eligible, sorted by country. There are two categories: If a university is listed as “eligible,” it means that you can use FAFSA for loans towards your abroad degree. Some universities are classified as “deferment only”: That means you cannot use FAFSA loans for your abroad degree, but any student loan you currently have can be put into deferred status while attending that university, assuming you follow all guidelines.
Around 600 universities in Europe are officially recognised under the FAFSA scheme:
