Tuition and Fees

FLAD is a private Portuguese non-profit foundation. This means that SiPN was created with a true non-profit spirit, which is why our program fees are much lower than other programs in Western Europe.

Below you can find SiPN’s program standard prices. Please consult with your school to understand how billing should be handled. Read more in the “Billing Information” section.

Summer Internship & Research Programs

SiPN’s internship program is only open to students at U.S. schools who have a signed partnership with us.

Credit/no credit options for our 8-week summer experience and their respective costs are best discussed with your study abroad office. If your school does not have a signed partnership with SiPN and you think it should, then please ask your study abroad office to contact us.

*Student Travel and Health Insurance

ALL SiPN students are covered by AON Travel and Health Insurance policy that is tailor-made for students studying abroad. It provides coverage for everything from a stolen laptop, to lost luggage, to dental, emergency, and routine medical coverage.

Opt-out SiPN Housing

Students who opt out of SiPN’s housing will still be charged a portion of the Housing & Student Affairs fee.

Summer: we will deduct from your final invoice $1000 per session.

Students who wish to opt out of SiPN’s housing must communicate with the program by email during their application process and before their acceptance into the program.

Rebates

We want our students to experience SiPN and Portugal as much as possible so we have created an incentive for students who would like to combine more than one SiPN session.  (e.g. a semester plus a summer program).

Sign up for more than one SiPN edition and you will be entitled to an automatic reduction of the Comprehensive Tuition Fee. If the student’s decision to stay for another session is communicated during their stay, then it will be reflected on the invoice that regards the subsequent SiPN edition, in the following amounts: 

Rebates’ combination USD
One semester, fall or spring, plus one summer course $600
One semester, fall or spring, plus two summer courses $700
Two semesters  $2300
