Exchange and Partnership Programs

These programs are direct bilateral agreements between foreign universities and Marywood University. All terms are set forth within the relative contractual agreements.

Students register and pay Marywood University tuition and the partner institution accommodation and fees. Financial aid is available in full for fall and spring terms, in most cases. During summer sessions only Federal Direct Subsidized and/or Unsubsidized loans are available. Parents may also be eligible for a Federal Parent PLUS loan so long as the student is enrolled in at least 6 credits during the summer sessions and there remains a need in their cost of attendance...we would ensure that the loan is certified, and disbursed within Title IV guidelines.

Grades and credits are awarded as per prior Transfer of Credit Pre-Approval via Marywood University’s Registrars office. 

A student must receive a grade equivalent to a C or better for credits to transfer.

Affiliated Study Abroad Programs

These programs exist as billing agreements between other universities or consortiums, who themselves have agreements with foreign universities or have their own school abroad, thereby allowing MU students to participate and study at stated foreign universities.  

Students register and pay Marywood University tuition and general fee along with Marywood or the Affiliate's housing fees, whichever are higher,  for the affiliated programs under the agreement terms MU has with the affiliate. Financial aid is available in full for fall and spring terms, in most cases. During summer sessions only Federal Stafford and/or Alternative Loans are available. Grades are awarded from either our partnering university or consortium and not the foreign institute. Credits are transcribed via Marywood University’s Registrar’s office as per pre-approval via a completed Transfer of Credit form prior to travel. 

A student must receive a grade equivalent to a C or better for credits to transfer.
