Dear Juliana,
Thank you for sharing Resolution 24: Cost Barriers to Study Abroad.
I appreciate the Student Assembly’s efforts to make studying abroad more accessible to students, and am supportive of reducing all barriers possible to allow for more students to participate in this experience. However, due to the cost limitations of the program, I do not believe it is realistic for the Cornell International Program Tuition to be reduced at this time.
