WITHDRAWALS AND REFUND POLICY

A student who chooses to withdraw from a semester abroad program administered by TCU will be subject to the official policies of TCU for withdrawal from the university. (See the TCU Undergraduate Bulletin/Bachelor’s Degree/Definitions and Regulations.)

If you decide to withdraw from a program, you must notify in writing CIS (studyabroad@tcu.edu).

Program fee refunds will be determined by recoverable costs to TCU. Withdrawal after the program start date will most likely result in the loss of the entire program fee.
 
In any event, the non-refundable $500.00 deposit will forfeited for a student-initiated withdrawal from the program.
 
TCU recommends that all study abroad students consider trip cancellation insurance to cover items such as program fees, airline tickets, and travel-related costs in the unlikely event of a withdrawal from a program.
Many travel insurance companies exist and each one has their own terms and exclusions. A few offer “cancel for any reason” supplements and might be of particular interest. (Please be aware that this type of coverage often requires that you purchase the coverage within 15 days of the initial deposit.)
 
Even though TCU does not endorse or recommend any insurance carrier, we have become aware of the following carriers that you might want to research for yourself.

TCU offers tuition insurance that you may wish to purchase.  This covers tuition costs if you leave the program early due to medical reasons.  Contact Financial Services for more information.
