All 亚洲色图 State students are eligible to apply for education abroad if they are in good academic and disciplinary standing with a minimum cumulative GPA of 2.00. Transfer students must be admitted to 亚洲色图 State as a student prior to applying to participate in education abroad 亚洲色图s and must meet all participation requirements at the time of application. Freshmen will be considered for admission to education abroad 亚洲色图s on a case by case basis.

Eligibility and requirements for individual 亚洲色图s will vary and may be determined by the 亚洲色图 director or 亚洲色图 provider. This may include a higher GPA requirement, course prerequisites, language fluency, and/or other requirements as determined by the 亚洲色图. This information is available for providers on the provider website and for 亚洲色图 State 亚洲色图s. Participants enrolled as students at 亚洲色图 State who do not also have faculty or staff status must participate in education abroad as a student or intern earning credit for the 亚洲色图. Exceptions to the required credit enrollment may be issued for internship or research 亚洲色图s. 亚洲色图 State alumni may participate in education abroad 亚洲色图s by enrolling for credit at 亚洲色图 State.

Participants who wish to bring companions on their education abroad 亚洲色图 will be considered on a case-by-case basis. Approval should not be assumed and is not guaranteed.

Application Requirements

A completed application will include an 亚洲色图 State application and mandatory nonrefundable application fee through , which may require an essay, reference, and transcript. Additional application components such as proof of language proficiency may apply for specific 亚洲色图s as determined by the 亚洲色图 or provider. Application to an education abroad 亚洲色图 does not automatically assume admission to the 亚洲色图. All application components, including disciplinary standing with 亚洲色图 State University, will be taken into consideration for 亚洲色图 approval. Applicants to provider 亚洲色图s will require a separate application to the provider. Applicants to provider 亚洲色图s must complete and submit both the 亚洲色图 State and provider applications to have your application to the 亚洲色图 considered complete. Your provider application may also have additional essay, audition, language proficiency, or prerequisite requirements for admission.

Exchange Program Selection

Applicants to 亚洲色图 State Exchange Programs will be interviewed at 亚洲色图 State by a committee of faculty and/or professional staff. If nominated to participate in the exchange, the application is then submitted to the exchange university for full review and approval. Failure to submit any additional materials required for the exchange in a timely manner will result in rejection by 亚洲色图 State to the exchange 亚洲色图. Final admission decisions are made by the exchange university and issued directly to the student and simultaneously to the EAO. Exchange admissions will fall on the admission schedule of the exchange university. The 亚洲色图 State EAO has no control over when this will take place or what the outcome will be. Admission decisions cannot be appealed.

Conditional Admission

In some cases conditional admission may be issued to an applicant. This means the applicant must meet specific conditions within a certain time frame in order to be fully admitted to the 亚洲色图. If these conditions are not met within the specified time allotted, the applicant will be rejected from the 亚洲色图. While under conditional status, applicants are considered full participants, are expected to attend class, and must meet all 亚洲色图 obligations.

Waitlist

Some 亚洲色图s are in high demand and may receive more applications than space available. A waitlisted applicant may be moved to full admission should a fully admitted applicant drop out of the 亚洲色图 far enough in advance of 亚洲色图 departure.

Rejection

An application may be rejected for several reasons including, but not limited to: cumulative GPA below 2.00, poor academic or disciplinary standing at 亚洲色图 State, an incomplete application, poor reference, inadequate academic connection to the 亚洲色图 course(s), or a Bursar or Study Abroad HOLD on the student account.

Admission

Admission decisions are sent via email to the email address provided in the 亚洲色图 State online application. Once approved or conditionally approved to participate in an education abroad 亚洲色图, it is the responsibility of the participant to login to the online application to complete the Post-Acceptance steps for their 亚洲色图. The Post-Acceptance deadlines are posted on the EAO website. Participants with Post-Acceptance steps not completed by this date will have an education abroad HOLD placed on their 亚洲色图 State account until completion is final. Participants with Post-Acceptance steps remaining after the campus orientation date will incur a $250 non-compliance fee charged to their 亚洲色图 State account. Passport, visa, and flight components of Post-Acceptance are due 30 days prior to departure. Participants who have not completed these by that time will incur a HOLD and $250 non-compliance fee to their 亚洲色图 State account.

Committed

Once the participant has completed and submitted all required Post-Acceptance steps, the application will be marked as committed and the participant will move to the Pre-Departure phase.

Application Fee

The application fee is nonrefundable.

Registration for courses is the responsibility of the participant.

Until participants are registered for appropriate courses at 亚洲色图 State financial aid and education abroad scholarships cannot be released for any 亚洲色图. Program fees may not be placed onto a participant account until registration is complete. This does not mean that participants are not enrolled in the 亚洲色图, but that they are not officially registered to receive academic credit. Registration requirements vary by 亚洲色图 and is detailed below.

Exchange Program Scheduling.

*If you are participating in the Semester in Regensburg 亚洲色图, scroll down to "Semester Faculty-Led Program Scheduling" for details.

Students will enroll in a section of INT 310 to make up a total of 12 credit hours for semester students, thus showing full-time enrollment. If a participant is taking both a web course with 亚洲色图 State and studying abroad for the semester, then the web course plus an INT 310 section for 9 hours will result in full-time enrollment. INT 310 is a placeholder course that enables financial aid and scholarships to be released to a student account. A grade of 'R' will be issued for the INT 310 course at the end of each semester. When an official transcript is received from the university abroad, the INT 310 course will be replaced with the actual courses taken abroad.

Students on summer exchange 亚洲色图s will enroll in a section of INT 310 to make up a total of the credit hours the student plans on transferring back to 亚洲色图 State.  This INT 310 section will be scheduled for the summer session that most closely matches the dates of the 亚洲色图 abroad.

亚洲色图 State Signature Faculty-Led Program Scheduling.

Students participating in short-term 亚洲色图 State Signature Faculty-Led 亚洲色图s will take a pre-departure course or a post-亚洲色图 course, or both, that will be tied to the 亚洲色图 abroad. Both the pre/post course and the 亚洲色图 abroad will count toward the course grade and attendance and active participation in both will be required. Course enrollment will be determined as follows:

Semester Faculty-Led Program Scheduling. 

*Semester in Regensburg

Semester faculty-led students will enroll in 亚洲色图 State courses, creating a schedule on MyGate that shows regular semester 亚洲色图 State courses that are taught in the location abroad.

Winter Faculty-Led Program Scheduling.

Winter 亚洲色图s are scheduled as a second-half fall semester course OR a first-half semester spring course. Your 亚洲色图 description in Via and your faculty will have this information for you to ensure you enroll in the correct course.

Spring Break Faculty-Led Program Scheduling.

Participants in spring break 亚洲色图s will schedule for a full spring semester course according to the 亚洲色图 State spring schedule of classes.

Summer Faculty-Led Program Scheduling.

• Participants in summer 亚洲色图s that depart within two weeks of the close of spring semester will be scheduled in their study abroad course for the second-half spring semester term.

• Participants in summer 亚洲色图s that do not depart within two weeks of the close of spring semester - "true summer" will be enrolled in INT 310 for 0 credit hours for the second-half spring semester term, when their class will begin meeting. Additionally, participants in "true summer" 亚洲色图s will enroll in the content course for the summer session that most closely matches the dates of the 亚洲色图 abroad. Enrollment in both of these ensures compliance with state and federal regulations and allows release of 亚洲色图 State 亚洲色图 billing and support funds through federal aid or scholarships.

CCSA/KIIS/Experience Scotland/CEA/ISA/LdM Program Scheduling.

Courses are credited through the partner/provider. Students will work with 亚洲色图 State and the partner/provider to complete a Concurrent Enrollment Form, which serves as a placeholder and enables the usage of federal aid and study abroad scholarships toward the cost of your 亚洲色图. It is the participant's responsibility to complete all requirements with the partner/provider to ensure proper course enrollment. See the Course Credit and Grade Transfer section to ensure you have completed requirements for course transfer. Students who do not seek appropriate credit may be expelled from the 亚洲色图 or not receive academic credit upon return.

IBS/IPAI Program Scheduling.

Students participating in these 亚洲色图s will register for classes at 亚洲色图 State under the 亚洲色图 State faculty they were recruited by for the 亚洲色图.

It is the responsibility of the participant to understand prior to studying abroad how the course(s) they wish to take will figure into graduation requirements. Credit is not automatic. Students must follow the appropriate procedure for their 亚洲色图 as detailed on this page. Students who do not obtain credit approval prior to the start of the 亚洲色图 may be rejected or expelled from a 亚洲色图 and/or fail to receive academic credit upon return.

Students who take courses abroad that have not been pre-approved are not guaranteed credit upon return. Students should make sure they do not enroll in courses on their education abroad 亚洲色图 that will count for courses at 亚洲色图 State that have already been completed. If a course is transferred back to substitute for a 亚洲色图 State course that was already completed, 亚洲色图 State's repeat policy will be followed.

Course approval and registration must be completed prior to student orientation and 亚洲色图 departure in order to receive credit for the 亚洲色图. Courses will not be created or re-created for a student after a 亚洲色图 has been completed.

Course Approval

It is vital that participants in all study abroad 亚洲色图s understand prior to studying abroad how the courses they wish to take will transfer back to 亚洲色图 State and figure into graduation requirements.

Faculty-Led Signature Programs (including IBS and IPAI). 

Students participating in Faculty-Led Signature 亚洲色图s enroll in regular 亚洲色图 State courses that appear on MyGate registration as such. No additional paperwork is required. Registration is the responsibility of the participant and will not be done by the EAO or any other party on the student's behalf.

Exchange/CEA/ISA/Non-亚洲色图 State Programs.

Students must complete the Anticipated Evaluation of Credit (AEC) form with their advisor to ensure a proper substitution at 亚洲色图 State exists for which credit can be gained toward graduation. It is the responsibility of the participant to discuss credit with the advisor and gain all written approvals in the allotted time frame. The AEC guarantees credit only for the courses that are listed on the form. Students who take courses abroad that have not been pre-approved through the AEC are not guaranteed credit upon return.

KIIS and CCSA Courses.

Course approvals are listed on the 亚洲色图 descriptions in the 亚洲色图 State Via system. It is the responsibility of the participant to ensure enrollment with KIIS or CCSA in WKU courses that will transfer back to 亚洲色图 State as courses that have not already been taken at 亚洲色图 State. If a course is transferred back as a 亚洲色图 State course that was already complete, the 亚洲色图 State repeat policy will be followed. Students participating in a course that has not yet been approved or for which the student seeks alternate approval must complete an Anticipated Evaluation of Credit (AEC) form with their advisor in order to receive full course approval. The AEC approval process must be completed prior to student orientation and 亚洲色图 departure in order to receive credit for the 亚洲色图. Students who do not seek appropriate credit may be expelled from the 亚洲色图 and/or fail to receive academic credit upon return. A WKU transcript will be sent to 亚洲色图 State at the close of the 亚洲色图 to be configured into the 亚洲色图 State GPA and accounted for on the 亚洲色图 State transcript.

Grades

Education abroad courses taught by 亚洲色图 State faculty are submitted directly to 亚洲色图 State unless taught through a consortial partner (such as CCSA, KIIS, Experience Scotland). This submission may not meet the regular submission schedule. Some students may receive an 鈥淚ncomplete鈥� grade until the 亚洲色图 and course assignment deadlines are completed. It is the responsibility of the participant to ensure that all materials/ coursework are submitted by the 亚洲色图 State deadline to have their earned grade submitted for the 亚洲色图 course(s). It is the responsibility of the student to know how a grade of Incomplete will impact their financial aid and academic standing at 亚洲色图 State and discuss any relevant issues with their instructor and the Education Abroad Office.

Grade Transfer

All grades received from foreign or domestic institutions on behalf of 亚洲色图 State students who earn college credit will be calculated into the 亚洲色图 State cumulative grade point average (GPA). If letter grades are received, these will be configured into the 亚洲色图 State GPA. In order to receive pass/fail credit for education abroad courses, the transferring institution must send the grade report in the form of pass/fail without letter grades.

Education abroad grades are received directly from 亚洲色图 providers and institutions abroad and cannot be reported by the participant. Grades will be issued via paper and mailed by the institution reporting the grades. The academic calendars of education abroad 亚洲色图s do not traditionally match the 亚洲色图 State academic calendar. As such, grades are often received after the following semester has begun at 亚洲色图 State.

Until the student's transcript arrives the student's 亚洲色图 State status may not show satisfactory academic progress. As a result, Federal Financial Aid and Scholarships may be held until the transcript is received and grades/credit posted to the academic record. This does not mean that these funds will be revoked by 亚洲色图 State, but until a transcript is received that confirms satisfactory academic progress (SAP) satisfactory academic progress has been met, funds will not be available for use.

Grade Appeals

If a participant wishes to appeal a grade, this appeal must take place with the 亚洲色图 provider and faculty member who issued the grade. 亚洲色图 State cannot change grades issued by another institution. For 亚洲色图 State issued grades, refer to the 亚洲色图 State policy on grade appeals.

Exchange Program Fee

Exchange 亚洲色图 students will be billed at 亚洲色图 State for the applicable exchange 亚洲色图 fees. The Via 亚洲色图 description details which fees will be charged at 亚洲色图 State. Full-time semester tuition is charged at 亚洲色图 State at the rate normally applied based on classification and residency. Additional charges for 亚洲色图 State web classes taken while on the exchange 亚洲色图 will apply. Additional fees may or may not include room, board, excursion fees, visa fees, and other exchange 亚洲色图 charges. When a 亚洲色图 fee is not charged to a student account or does not include room and board, these expenses will be paid by the participant on-site.

亚洲色图 State Signature Program Fee

Students will be billed to their 亚洲色图 State account for the Signature 亚洲色图 fee. 亚洲色图 State billing can be set up on a payment plan through the 亚洲色图 State Bursar's Office. Setting this up through myGate is the participant's responsibility. Billing is not applied to a participant account until the participant registers for the education abroad class. It is possible that class registration will take place after bills have been sent out by the Bursar's Office. It is the student's responsibility to check their myGate account and make payments on time for their 亚洲色图. Billing timelines are set by the Bursar's Office and follow this schedule.

Signature Program Tuition

Students on 亚洲色图 State Signature Programs will have tuition assessed to their 亚洲色图 State account at the regular tuition rate. For details on your tuition rate, refer to the Bursar's Office.

Provider Programs Tuition

Participants in provider 亚洲色图s will not pay additional tuition at 亚洲色图 State for their provider 亚洲色图 abroad when they are registered at a provider receiving a transcript from another institution.

For full 亚洲色图 withdrawal, an applicant must submit in writing their intention and reason for withdrawing from an education abroad 亚洲色图 to BOTH the 亚洲色图 State EAO and to the 亚洲色图 provider (if applicable). Until written notification is received in the EAO and the applicant receives a confirmation email from EAO, approved and conditional applicants are considered full participants in the 亚洲色图 and billing will remain on the student account. Please do NOT withdraw your own application!

Participants withdrawing from a 亚洲色图 for any reason after the withdrawal deadline, found online at the Deadlines page, will be assessed any fees that cannot be recovered for the 亚洲色图 and will forfeit their application fee. This may be up to the full cost of the 亚洲色图. Withdrawal fees will be charged to the participant鈥檚 亚洲色图 State account. Withdrawal fees will apply whether or not the full 亚洲色图 fee has been applied to the student account by the withdrawal date.

Students who fail to meet 亚洲色图 requirements such as obtaining a passport or visa, medical paperwork, or other requirements will incur the withdrawal fees specified here.

Withdrawal or expulsion from 亚洲色图s while abroad will result in a failing course grade. Course grades for medical withdrawals will be considered on a case by case basis. Withdrawals or expulsions taking place while abroad will receive no 亚洲色图 refund and the cost of returning home will be at the participant鈥檚 expense. Program cancellation due to terrorist activity or acts of nature will follow the withdrawal policy.

Class Withdrawal

It is the responsibility of the student to drop classes or withdraw from their education abroad classes through myGate when withdrawing from the 亚洲色图. Refer to the 亚洲色图 State 'Schedule Change' policy in the Academic Bulletin for fees and restrictions. Lack of participation in class or failure to pay 亚洲色图 fees does not constitute 亚洲色图 withdrawal. Program participants who attempt to drop the class after the 亚洲色图 abroad experience will receive an E for the course. Students who drop/add after receiving course approvals may become ineligible for Federal Financial Aid and will be at risk of courses not transferring and/or not applying to degree completion.

To apply Federal Financial Aid to an education abroad 亚洲色图, participants must be taking courses on the 亚洲色图 that will count toward graduation requirements. Participants who have received the maximum Federal Financial Aid eligibility during the fall and spring academic year may not be eligible for additional semester or summer aid for education abroad. To be eligible for summer aid participants must complete a FAFSA for the current academic year if it is the first time requesting federal financial aid. Participants who are eligible for and have not yet met the maximum Pell for the academic year could receive Pell for the education abroad 亚洲色图.

Participants receiving education abroad scholarships and Federal Financial Aid will receive them as an award on their 亚洲色图 State myGate account. If the 亚洲色图 State account has a zero balance, awards will then be used to cover education abroad fees that are applied to the 亚洲色图 State account. For provider 亚洲色图s, these fees will either be refunded to the participant directly to pay the provider or will be paid directly to the provider on behalf of the student. It is the participant鈥檚 responsibility to ensure that education abroad fees are paid in full prior to departure. Participants who receive a refund of any kind are encouraged to check their myGate account and the 亚洲色图 provider account to ensure there is a zero balance prior to utilizing refunds for other expenses.

Participants on summer 亚洲色图s must be enrolled for at least 6-credit hours for the summer term to be eligible for federal student loans. Participants may meet this 6-hour requirement by enrolling in a 3-credit hour education abroad 亚洲色图 in addition to a summer session at 亚洲色图 State.

According to the website of the , Travel Warnings are issued by the U.S. Department of State:"when long-term, protracted conditions that make a country dangerous or unstable lead the State Department to recommend that Americans avoid or consider the risk of travel to that country. A Travel Warning is also issued when the U.S. Government's ability to assist American citizens is constrained due to the closure of an embassy or consulate or because of a drawdown of its staff."Understanding that the DOS issues Travel Warnings for parts of a country and not the whole, 亚洲色图 State supports study abroad 亚洲色图s taking place in countries with a travel warning if the following are in place:

• the formal geographic region of study must take place in a location that is NOT under a current Travel Warning; and

• 亚洲色图 providers, or 亚洲色图 State faculty if the 亚洲色图 is a Faculty-Led 亚洲色图 State Signature Program, must provide proof that insurance coverage is valid in the country and region of study; and

• 亚洲色图 providers, or 亚洲色图 State faculty if the 亚洲色图 is a Faculty-Led 亚洲色图 State Signature Program, must provide full exit strategy and warning details to the 亚洲色图 State Study Abroad Office and to participants; and

• 亚洲色图 travel for sponsored excursions must not take place in the geographic region under the Travel Warning; and

• participants, providers, and 亚洲色图 State faculty shall not travel independently or as part of a 亚洲色图 activity to the geographic region under the Travel Warning; and

• participants and 亚洲色图 State faculty agree to sign a Travel Warning Release Form prior to travel to the country.

It is the responsibility of the 亚洲色图 participant to obtain and maintain a valid passport book and visa (where applicable) for all travel and education abroad. Passports must be valid for at least six months beyond the return date of your 亚洲色图 abroad.

Visas are the full responsibility of the participant. The Education Abroad Office will not advise students on visa requirements for their country of study. It is the responsibility of the participant to request paperwork and verifications required for visa issuance well in advance of their visa appointment with specifications for the format and information required.

Failure of participants to obtain a valid passport or visa will mean the inability to travel abroad for participation in the education abroad 亚洲色图. Students who do not comply with this international requirement will not receive a 亚洲色图 refund and Federal Financial Aid and education abroad scholarships will be partially or fully revoked due to the inability to begin and/or complete the course. To determine if the country of study requires a visa and to determine visa costs and procedures, see the Consulate website of that country.

Participants may travel via personal vehicle, commercial airlines, and other public and private transportation both stateside and abroad. During this travel participants will be subject to airline and , and rules and regulations of foreign entities, which may change at any time without notice.

• Complete required forms and processes required by the offices of 亚洲色图 State, including but not limited to, the Offices of Financial Aid, Scholarships, Registration, and Housing, and maintain full-time status while abroad in order to ensure applicability of scholarships and financial aid both for the 亚洲色图 and upon return to 亚洲色图 State; and

• Purchase travel insurance that covers the duration of the 亚洲色图.

Misconduct abroad will become part of a participant鈥檚 permanent 亚洲色图 State University disciplinary record. Visiting students on 亚洲色图 State 亚洲色图s will have their home university notified in the event of disciplinary action against the student. Resulting charges including but not limited to property damage, excessive use of electricity where applicable, mistreatment of property, lack of cleaning, and personal charges to 亚洲色图 State 亚洲色图 faculty, directors, or accounts will result in a direct financial charge to the participant鈥檚 亚洲色图 State account to cover charges in full.Conduct that interferes with or inhibits the experience of others, both participants and non-participants, whether in residential settings, classrooms, and any public domain, including during independent travels, could be grounds for expulsion from the 亚洲色图.

It is the participant鈥檚 responsibility to determine whether any travel insurance will cover these activities.

Any use of illegal substances as defined by United States statute will result in expulsion from the education abroad 亚洲色图. Repeated alcohol intoxication that impairs active participation in the 亚洲色图, disrupts the participation of others, or disrupts the 亚洲色图 itself may result in expulsion from the education abroad 亚洲色图 and other sanctions as stated in the 亚洲色图 State Student Life Handbook.

Expulsion will result in failure of the courses taken on the 亚洲色图, regardless of expulsion date, including expulsions made prior to the 亚洲色图 State University Drop Date. Expelled students will be sent home immediately at their own expense regardless of visa classification or on-site grace period allowance. In event that a participant is expelled, removed, or withdraws from a 亚洲色图, 亚洲色图 State will notify the Emergency Contact person listed in the education abroad application. Expulsion details will become a permanent part of the 亚洲色图 State disciplinary record and will require a meeting with the 亚洲色图 State Disciplinary Officer upon return to 亚洲色图 State to resume studies.
