Just a personal experience with an internship abroad.
I spent a semester on a combined internship / study abroad program in London (work 2 days, class 2 days). The cost of the program was about ~$15k including living space. While that may sound expensive, I was already paying ~$15k in tuition a semester as an out of state student at a state school. So studying abroad actually ended up being cheaper (with the included living space) than staying at my normal university. There were also several scholarships available to study abroad students to further reduce the cost.
- ilamont 12y agoDid something similar when I was an undergrad. It was arranged through my school. Worked out to be cheaper, and was a great experience -- probably the best of my undergrad years. Led to other opportunities that I never would have had, had I stayed in the U.S. that semester. EDIT: Just looked at the cost for the current semester - it's about 30% less than regular tuition + room & board, although the semester abroad is 3 weeks shorter. Airfare is not factored in.
