These estimates are for visiting international High School Honors students during Summer Term 2027. The six-week estimate covers the length of the High School Honors program.
Please note that all estimated expenses are subject to change.
The Minimum Amount of Financial Documentation is the amount that students must demonstrate they have in financial support in order for Boston University to issue you an I-20 document for summer study. Actual expenses incurred may vary for the following reasons:
- University fees: Some courses also carry lab or additional fees, which can be found in the course descriptions on the Summer Term website.
- Housing and dining: The rates are for a double-occupancy dormitory room with a 14-meal-per-week plan. Choosing a 19-meal-per-week plan will result in different charges.
- Books, supplies, and incidentals: Actual expenses may vary depending on courses taken and lifestyle. The estimates do not include airfare.
In 2026, the minimum amount of financial documentation (with the residential component) was $12,189.98. Summer 2027 estimated expenses for visiting international High School Honors students will be posted on December 17.
