they select to withdraw or are withdrawn by staff due to eligibility reasons. Please
see below for the most updated refund policies from the study abroad and exchange
programs. The $500 Study Abroad Fee is

AIFS
AIFS Withdrawal Refund Policy
The right to refunds is limited. All withdrawal requests must be in writing by email
to the Program Advisor or Program Manager for the program.
Refunds prior to the start of the program
Using the postmark or fax date of a student’s withdrawal letter as the official withdrawal
date, the following applies:
Withdrawal Policy
If a student withdraws:
Student receives:
After final payment deadline and more than 60 days before departure
All payments minus the non-refundable deposit and application fee of $650 and any
program and flight cancellation fees incurred by AIFS as a result of the withdrawal.

No refund
Students who have not paid their program fees and do not notify AIFS in writing of
their intent to withdraw before the final payment deadline for their program are also
subject to the above refund policy. They will be invoiced accordingly and responsible
for the balance due.
Optional Trip Interruption or Cancellation Insurance
Students will have the option of purchasing additional trip cancellation or interruption
insurance which allows them to protect their study abroad program. This policy includes
options to cancel for any reason (CFAR) and interrupt for any reason (IFAR). Details
of the
Worldwide Trip Protector Plans
with travel insurance underwritten by the United States Fire Insurance Company, rated
A (Excellent) by A.M. Best 2019, are available on the
Cultural Insurance Services International (CISI) website
. Students may purchase their plan directly through the CISI website.
If AIFS Abroad cancels a program
Should AIFS Study Abroad cancel a program prior to departure for reasons within its
control (including due to lack of enrolment) participants will be notified and a refund
(less the application fee) or, at the participant’s request, credit toward another
program will be made.
Should AIFS Abroad cancel a program after the final payment deadline (including once
the program has started) for reasons beyond its control including but not limited
to Acts of God, government actions (including those restricting travel), pandemics,
fire, flood, explosion, earthquake, or other natural forces, war, civil unrest, accident,
terrorism, any strike or labor disturbance, or any other event similar to those enumerated
above (a “Force Majeure” Event) students will receive no refund except for recoverable
costs.
If a University cancels a program
Different than if a student withdraws, or AIFS Abroad cancels a program, a university
may choose to cancel travel through a specific date or restrict travel to specific
locations.
For J Term and Spring 2022 – AIFS will not refund application fees for any cancellation
or withdrawal.
If the University requires Home School Approval we will be requesting that advisors
approve or deny applications in the Advisor Portal by July 1.
Should a university cancel a program (including once the program has started) for
reasons beyond its control including but not limited to Acts of God, government actions
(including those restricting travel), pandemics, fire, flood, explosion, earthquake,
or other natural forces, war, civil unrest, accident, terrorism, any strike or labor
disturbance, or any other event similar to those enumerated above (a “force majeure”
event) participants will receive
no refund except for recoverable costs
Recoverable costs may include, but not are not limited to program fees (including
tuition), housing, social/cultural activities/excursions, safety and security and
administrative cost, or organized flights. Most of these costs are paid before the
start of the program and are not typically recoverable. In the event of cancellation
AIFS Abroad will endeavor to obtain refunds from suppliers and pass any recovered
costs on to the participant.
If Students choose to leave the program early
Students choosing to leave the program early for personal, medical or other reasons
are not entitled to any refund. Completion of academic credit will be determined on
a case by case basis. Students dismissed for disciplinary reasons receive no refund
of any kind and forfeit all academic credit.
There are no refunds for meals, accommodation, cultural activities/excursions, tuition
or transportation missed by the students. In addition, the student is responsible
for any additional flight fees if they have purchased a flight with AIFS that needs
to be changed to an earlier return date.

CEA CAPA
CEA CAPA Withdrawal Refund Policy
Withdrawal Dates
The program withdrawal date is the last day a participant can withdraw from a program
and not be held responsible for full payment or be eligible for a refund if full program
costs have been paid. All participants must be paid-in-full and/or have submitted
the required Financial Aid or Payment Plan forms by the program withdrawal date. If
the withdrawal date falls on a weekend, the following business day will be honored
(see Refund Policies section for more information).
In the event a program change is made by the student after Withdrawal Deadline, cost
difference between programs (if applicable) is not refunded.
The dates and penalties as described do not apply to CEA CAPA custom programs
Please note the student may be subject to different withdrawal dates and fees policies
based on their home institution.
Refund Policies
All confirmed CEA CAPA participants are eligible to apply for a refund of program
costs according to the CEA CAPA Withdrawal Dates and Cancellation Penalties listed
above. To be considered for a refund of paid program costs, participants are required
to confirm their withdrawal in writing and complete the CEA CAPA refund request form.
Refunds will be calculated from the date the written program withdrawal is received.
If a participant withdraws from a CEA CAPA Program after the program withdrawal date
and has not yet paid their program fees, they will be responsible to pay all owed
cancellation penalties due at the time of the program withdrawal.
Non-Refundable Items:
Refunds will not be provided under the following circumstances:
Program Application fees
Program Confirmation fees
Participants who are withdrawn by CEA CAPA for non-payment
Participants that voluntarily leave a CEA CAPA Program before the program end date
Participants who are dismissed from a program for violation of CEA CAPA's Participant
Policies
Any Cancellation penalties due as outlined in the CEA CAPA participant withdrawal
policy
Program cost difference for participants who voluntairily decide to switch from an
internship to a study-only program after confirmation
Pre-Program (Prior to Departure)
: If a participant has purchased CEA CAPA Secure Coverage they may withdraw from their
CEA CAPA program for any covered circumstance listed below up to one calendar week
before your program’s start date and receive a prorated refund for all recoverable
program fees that you have paid to CEA CAPA based on the time of your cancellation,
less the $95 application fee, non-refundable program confirmation fee, and the cost
of the CEA CAPA Secure plan.
After Program Start
: If a participant is required to withdraw for a covered reason after the start of
the program, prorated refunds are assessed to determine the recoverable costs based
on the time a covered circumstance happens. As with a pre-program start refund, your
$95 application fee, non-refundable confirmation fee, and the cost of CEA CAPA Secure
are not refundable. For all onsite incidents, the prorated refund exceptions will
only cover approved costs not covered by CEA CAPA’s International Travel Health Insurance.
Examples of circumstances covered by CEA CAPA Secure:
Medical Incident that resulted in serious injury, illness, or death to you or immediate
family
Significant injury that limits mobility (leg, foot, hip, back)
Death in immediate family
Diagnosis of terminal illness
Destruction of primary residence
CEA CAPA Secure Claims Process
Participants who have purchased CEA CAPA Secure Coverage can apply for a prorated
refund outside of the standard program withdrawal policy. To file a claim, the participant
should first complete the standard refund request process and email a short-written
statement (500 words or less) explaining the situation to their designated point of
contact managing the claim. This point of contact will be provided to the participant
at the time of claim. The participant should also attach any relevant files (e.g.,
medical records, etc.) to the form. All approved prorated refunds will be reviewed
and processed within 30 days of receipt of the claim. Participants who do not purchase
CEA CAPA Secure coverage will not be eligible for any refunds after their program
withdrawal date as outlined in the CEA CAPA standard refund policy.
Refund Payments
Before processing refunds, all participants must fill out an ACH form noting the bank
details for the account to which they want the funds sent. Refunds will be sent to
that specified bank via mail/direct deposit/wire transfer. Participants should allow
approximately 45 days for a refund payment to be processed. *These withdrawal and
refund policies only apply to participants paying all program fees directly to CEA
CAPA. If the student submits all or a portion of their program cost payment to a home
institution for their CEA CAPA program or if they are participating in a custom/faculty-led
program, the student must follow up directly with their study abroad office or program
leader to confirm the program withdrawal and refund policy.
Program Cancellation
CEA CAPA reserves the right to cancel or suspend a program at any time. Changes in
a program's structure do not constitute its cancellation (see below Change in Program
Structure). If CEA CAPA cancels or suspends a program prior to the start of the program,
accepted applicants are given the choice of the following:
Switching to a future program session
Switching to a different CEA CAPA program site
A full refund of all fees paid, less the application fee
If an accepted applicant chooses to switch to a future session or a different CEA
CAPA program, all fees paid including the application fee will be applied towards
the new program. At that point, they will be enrolled in that program and are subject
to any CEA CAPA policies and/or new payment obligations that apply. If a CEA CAPA
program is cancelled mid program due to safety and security concerns all program fees
are non-refundable as program costs are paid out on participant's behalf prior to
arrival. CEA CAPA strongly recommends all participants purchase the CEA Secure Coverage
to receive a prorated refund of any recoverable program fees from the date of cancellation.
Change in Program Structure
CEA CAPA makes every effort to ensure that programs operate as described in the published
material. However, due to unforeseen circumstances changes may be necessary. Changes
in program structure may include staffing, excursions, immersion activities, academic
options and/or housing options. Necessary changes in academic delivery or format while
a program is ongoing, such as moving from in-person to online course work or vice
versa, are considered a change in program structure. CEA CAPA cannot guarantee any
course selections made by participants. Course availability may be changed by the
host institution and/or CEA CAPA at any time. No refund or reduction of fees will
be made if the altered arrangements are similar to the original arrangements as deemed
by CEA CAPA. Determinations of similarity will be made at CEA CAPA’s sole discretion.

be transferred to another semester. Payment of the balance of the program fee is due
on the following dates:
July 15
for fall semester programs
December 15
for spring semester programs
May 15
for summer programs
Students are expected to pay the program fee according to this schedule. If payment
is not made on schedule, the student will be withdrawn for nonpayment.
For IHP/Comparative programs, enrolled students who withdraw prior to 90 days before
the start of the program forfeit one-half of the acceptance deposit ($1,250). After
that time, no refunds of the $2,500 acceptance deposit will be given.
Withdrawal Refund Procedures
After acceptance to the program, refunds in the event of withdrawal will be made according
to the schedule below. Refunds will be calculated from the time SIT is notified by
the student or by the last date of association with the program, whichever is later.
The amount of the total refund will be determined by the Office of the Registrar.
After the refund amount has been determined, balances will be refunded or invoices
issued for outstanding funds. Students withdrawing before the first 50% of the term
is over will realize an adjustment of tuition, room, and board, excluding the nonrefundable
deposit, according to the following schedule:
Up to the day of the student’s departure from the U.S. or home country, 100% refund
minus the confirmation deposit (either $400 or $2,500, depending on the program) and
any airline cancellation fees (if SIT cancels the program) and penalties
Students withdrawing before the first 50% of the semester is over will realize an
adjustment of tuition, room and board, excluding the nonrefundable deposit, according
to the following schedule:
SIT Withdrawal Schedule:

a written request with supporting documentation should be sent to the Office of the
Registrar and copied to the dean of students.

SIT reserves the right to terminate or alter a program at any time and for any reason,
with or without notice. Normally in the event of termination or cancellation, refund
procedures shall follow those set forth above in the Withdrawal Refund Procedures

Spanish Studies Abroad
Spanish Studies Abroad Withdrawal Refund Policy
Refund Policy
Penalties for withdrawal from a Spanish Studies Abroad program are assessed based
upon the length of time between notice of your withdrawal and the start of the program.
The deposit is always non-refundable. Withdrawal notification must be sent to
info@spanishstudies.org
In addition to the deposit forfeiture, withdrawal from a Spanish Studies Abroad program
incurs the following penalties:
25% of program fee for withdrawals between final payment due date and 30 days prior
to the start of the program.
25% of the room and board fee and 100% of the tuition, study tours, general education,
and orientation fees for withdrawals between 29 days prior to the start of the program

There is no refund for any portion of the program on or after the program start date.
In the case of homestays, Spanish Studies Abroad may change unsatisfactory lodgings
but will not refund any portion of room and board fees after a student’s arrival at
a home. If the student finds his or her housing to be unsatisfactory, he or she should
notify the program’s resident director or staff immediately.
Spanish Studies Abroad Withdrawal Policy
Temple University
Temple University Withdrawal Refund Policy
In order to determine a student's eligibility for refunds of any fees, Education Abroad
must first receive written notice of withdrawal from the student either by a signed
letter or email. Education Abroad cannot accept notice of withdrawal by any other
means, including phone calls or letters from parents. The only exception to this would
be if a student were incapacitated. In this case the student's parents or guardians
should contact Education Abroad.
Program and Housing Deposits:
The $200 program deposit and $200 housing deposit are non-refundable should a student
withdraw from the program.
Housing Fees:
Please note that Temple makes a commitment to housing partners abroad on behalf of
students immediately after the due date of students' housing forms and deposits. If
a student withdraws from the program or from Temple-arranged housing after the due
date and before the start of the program, Temple will attempt to obtain a refund of
the housing costs, but a refund may not be possible; students may be liable for the
full costs of housing and will be billed accordingly. By the time students arrive
on-site, Temple has made irrevocable commitments on their behalf. Students withdrawing
from the program or leaving their Temple-arranged housing at or after the start of
the program will receive no refund. If a student is responsible for damages or missing
items, Temple University will bill the student for the outstanding amount.
Other Program Fees (where applicable):
Once charges are posted to student accounts and initial bills are generated, Temple
makes commitments on behalf of students for various activities and services covered
by program fees (if any) such as orientation events, meals and excursions, if they
are offered as part of the program (please refer to the program information on the
Education Abroad website for details of any other program fees). If a student withdraws
from the program before initial bills are issued (see
Billing Policies and Procedures
for approximate initial billing dates), other program fees (if any) are refundable.
After bills are issued, Temple will attempt to obtain a refund, but students need
to be aware that a refund of program fees after the initial billing date may not be
possible.
Tuition:
Students will be charged 100% of their semester bill unless a course drop form is
processed by a registration office of the university or the student successfully drops
courses through Self Service Banner by the Drop/Add deadline date. Please note that
deadlines may vary according to the Part of Term in which the course is scheduled.
With some exceptions (see * below), students who process their course drops by the
Drop/Add deadline date will be issued a 100% refund. After this, refunds are not possible,
though there is provision for petitioning for a refund of tuition after the Drop/Add
deadline date if there are serious extenuating circumstances.
Program Suspension/Cancellation/Disruption:
We encourage students to consider purchasing trip cancellation insurance, which is
available through many travel agents and insurance companies. Keep in mind that policies
vary, so students should check with the travel insurance providers to find out what
specific expenses they will cover and what trip cancellations reasons they will accept.
Carefully review the exclusions. Students should also purchase flights with the most
flexible change and refund policies and understand these policies and their financial
responsibility before purchase, including any conditions related to the ability to
use a canceled ticket for a later flight. Temple University is not responsible for
any costs students may incur, including airfare and any cancellation or change fees,
in the event students withdraw from the program or the program is rescheduled, modified,
or canceled by Temple.
*Some of Temple’s programs involve partnerships with schools abroad. This information
can be found on our website. For these programs Temple makes financial commitments
on behalf of students to the partner institution; the amount of any tuition refund
will depend upon what, if any, refund can be secured from the partner. If a student
withdraws from the program before initial bills are generated, full tuition is refundable.
If a student withdraws after bills are issued, Temple will attempt to obtain a refund,
but a refund of tuition after the initial billing date is subject to the policies
of our partners abroad.
Temple reserves the right to amend prices to reflect changes in economic conditions.
