Study Abroad Fee to go into effect January 2009
Starting in January 2009, students who enroll in non-UM programs for semester study abroad will be charged a $400 fee. Students who enroll in exchange programs for study abroad or in non-UM programs for Winter Term or Summer will be charged a $250 fee per program. This charge will appear directly on student accounts. Students who attend Maryland sponsored semester programs and short term programs currently pay a study abroad fee as part of the overall program cost so no additional charge will appear on their account.
