After this, the application will be made to the host university, who will be in charge of putting the student in contact with their services for people with disabilities.

For your exchange semester you should consider at least the following items in your budget: UC tuition, round-trip airfare, travel insurance, student visa, housing, transportation, food, study materials, entertainment, etc.
