Killam Financial Arrangements
- Like other Smith Study Abroad students, Killam Fellows pay Smith home-school fees (less financial aid) but, unlike other Smith Study Abroad students, Killam Fellows do not pay Smith room and board.
- However, unlike other Smith Study Abroad students, Killam Fellows do pay for their own room and board abroad (in Canada) which can be paid for out of the Killam award. This amount should exceed room and board costs in Canada.
- Killam applicants apply separately for the $5000, which is paid against their tuition account. The High Cost Allowance is available at only some private U.S. institutions, such as Smith.
