UC Faculty-Led Cancellation Policy & Program Fees
UC Faculty-Led Cancellation Policy
During the application process, applicants signed the following cancellation policy. Note: Refunds for tuition are determined by the Bursar’s office.UC is often required to make non-refundable commitments to partner universities and providers abroad for study abroad programs and therefore needs your commitment in order to plan the program. By clicking the “commit” button upon receiving an offer of acceptance into your study abroad program, you are committing to being held financially liable for the program cost.
Should you need to cancel participation, you must do so in writing via email to UC International Programs (global@uc.edu). The date UC International receives notification is the date of cancellation that will be used to determine your entitlement to any refund.
Cancellation Policy:
* If you cancel more than 95 calendar days before the program travel date, you will be charged 50% of the total program fee.
* If you cancel less than 95 calendar days before the program travel date, you will be charged 100% of the total program fee.
Exceptions:
We understand that there are extenuating circumstances that require you to cancel participation. You may submit a written request for an exception to the refund policy to global@uc.edu. Requests for exceptions will be reviewed 6 weeks after the program's completion date. UC will determine whether to grant the exception on a case-by-case basis and in its sole discretion, pending that funds are available in your study abroad program budget.
