An Affordable Program!

While many other Japanese language programs will cost between $8,000 and $13,000 per semester, the KCP program costs $6,000 or less—close to half the cost!  Academic credit and financial aid are available through University of Idaho, and you should be able to apply federal and state financial aid to this program.

To gain academic credit for your study abroad, apply for the KCP program through the University of Idaho. Usually, it is not difficult to arrange transfer credit toward U.S. degrees, since KCP courses are offered at recognized institutions. However, it is the responsibility of your home institution to approve the amount of credit to transfer. At the end of the program, every participant receives an official university transcript. Course descriptions are available to help evaluate transfer credit.
