Program Fees are paid to Indiana University Accounts Receivable and are due in four installments:
*This initial deposit covers upfront costs for accommodations and transportation onsite.
Airfare for all sites/programs is paid directly in one (1) payment:
Accepted students who have not paid Program Fees and Airfare by the final payment deadlines will not be able to participate in the program.
Withdrawal Before the Program Begins
If a student withdraws from the program prior to departure, a refund of Program Fees will be calculated based on the following schedule:
- Before March 1, all but the $500 non-refundable deposit is refundable
- Before April 1, all but $1,000 is refundable
- Before May 1, only recoverable costs are refundable
- On or after May 1, Program Fees are 100% non-refundable (with rare exceptions)
Withdrawal from the program is considered effective on the date that written notification is received by IUHPFL.
Refunds on airfare are only possible through March 1.
Withdrawal After the Program Begins (While Abroad)
If a student wishes to withdraw from the program after it begins, they or their parents/guardians must send a statement to IUHPFL explaining the reason. At that point, no refund will be possible due to the expenses that will have been paid on the student's behalf. Additionally, parents/guardians will be responsible for all expenses associated with having an instructor accompany the student to the international airport in the host country and with changing the return flight.
Expulsion from the Program
If a student is expelled from the program, no refunds can be granted. Additionally, parents/guardians will be responsible for all expenses associated with having an instructor accompany the student to the international airport in the host country and with changing the return flight.
Cancellation of Programming by IUHPFL
If it is necessary for IUHPFL to cancel programming prior to departure, students and their parents/guardians will receive a refund of Program Fees and Airfare already paid, less any non-recoverable costs.
If it is necessary for IUHPFL to cancel programming after the programs begin, any recoverable costs will be refunded.
