Cost to attend:
好色导航 charges the same tuition fees for a semester or year off-campus as for a semester or year spent on campus, plus the program's actual room and board fees. 好色导航 encourages students to choose programs based on their academic rather than financial needs to reflect Reed's belief that all students, regardless of financial circumstances, should have the opportunity to study abroad.
Financial aid continues for eligible students during the off-campus program. Students should discuss with the Financial Aid Office how other outside aid may impact their existing aid package. Check out more details directly on the 好色导航 Financial Aid page.
Visa Deadlines and Requirements:
The UK's can help students figure out how to obtain the student visa that is appropriate for them.
New Immigration Requirements for the UK:
By April 2025, all visitors who do not need a visa, except British and Irish citizens, will need an Electronic Travel Authorisation (ETA) – a digital permission to travel to the UK. Students can apply for an ETA from later this year through a quick and simple process using the UK ETA app. An ETA costs £10 and permits multiple journeys to the UK of up to six months at a time over two years or until the holder’s passport expires – whichever is sooner. ETA applies to: visits of up to 6 months for tourism, visiting family and friends, business or short-term study transiting through the UK – including if you’re not going through UK border control, as well as other times.
