Cost

Global Interns are not billed Cornell tuition during their summer experiences. Successful applicants will receive an award covering the estimated costs for airfare, transportation, and living expenses. 

You are responsible for additional costs beyond this support, including but not limited to potential visa fees, host university fees, additional meals, and other personal expenses.  

Estimated Costs

These estimated costs are based on an average and reasonable estimate for the internship period. Individual out-of-pocket costs may vary. Cornell will pay the program fee to Ashoka directly for your accommodations and meals. This budget was last updated on October 6, 2025.
