Financial Aid can be used for this program. Discuss your options with your financial aid counselor to see if your award package needs be amended or redistributed to help offset the cost of the program. If you have questions, ask your Program Coordinator for help!

It is important to understand the withdrawal policy before submitting your application to study away. Withdrawing from a program after acceptance will have financial consequences.

In the event you must withdraw from your program or become ineligible, you will be held to the outlined withdrawal penalties.

Here is a link to ÍøÆسԹÏ’s Business Services with regards to delinquent accounts. Financial adjustments can take up to 30 days to process. Additionally, study away scholarships and financial aid will be rescinded.

A confirmation email will be sent to the email listed on the form once the request has been received and is being processed.

 

The University has the right, in its sole discretion, to cancel the Program or any aspect thereof prior to departure; and, in the University's sole discretion to cancel the Program or any aspect thereof after departure, requiring that all participants return to the United States if the University determines or believes that any person is or will be in danger if the Program or any aspect thereof is continued. If the Program is changed or canceled, the only responsibility of the University is to refund all uncommitted monies and deposits students have paid to the program. If changes in the Program are minor, the University does not have to refund any amount.

In addition to refunding all uncommitted monies, the program will attempt to recover any committed costs possible, and those recoverable costs will be refunded to students. In most circumstances though, committed costs for housing, excursions, and onsite transportation are not recoverable. In situations where a program is suspended after the start date, our first priority is to help students, faculty, and staff return home safely and transition modes of learning when possible.

If ÍøÆØ³Ô¹Ï determines that a program must be canceled prior to departure, program deposits will be refunded. In addition, a refund will be issued for program fees or tuition that have already been paid, less non-refundable deposits or payments made on your behalf. You are encouraged to purchase flight insurance and be sure there is flexibility for any date changes that arise. ÍøÆØ³Ô¹Ï will issue no refunds for individual flights purchased.

If ÍøÆØ³Ô¹Ï determines that a program must be suspended after the program start date, all uncommitted and recoverable funds will be refunded to the student. Every effort will be made to modify the mode of instruction for courses underway so that students may complete the academic coursework and receive credit. No tuition reimbursements will be provided.​​​​​​​
