Study Abroad Fees Approval Process

Study abroad fees are charged to participants to cover program expenses.

A request for a new or increased study abroad fee must include a detailed estimated budget. The request must be recommended for approval by the Executive Director of International Programs, Executive Associate Vice President for International Programs, Assistant Provost for Finance and Administration, Chair of the Student Fee Review Committee, Executive Vice President and Provost, and President.

All approved study abroad fees are collected and summarized and are forwarded through the Chancellor to the Board of Regents for confirmation each spring.

Fees for study abroad programs should be approved prior to the beginning of the semester or at the earliest time possible thereafter. Once approved, a fee is not resubmitted for approval unless it is to be increased.

The department will retain supporting documentation justifying the approved fee, student fee charges and residuals in the event of an inquiry.
