The following instructions apply to all UNC Asheville-approved study abroad programs except the Oxford, Ecuador, Greece, Italy, Cambridge and Dijon programs, for which students will follow regular registration procedures: Before participating in a study abroad program, a student must complete a Permission to Study Abroad form. This form is available from the Director of Study Abroad Programs or the Registrar. Permission must be obtained from the student's advisor and major department, the Foreign Languages Department (if foreign language courses are to be taken), Director of Study Abroad and the Registrar. The study abroad program must be approved by UNC Asheville and must meet accreditation guidelines. At the completion of the study abroad program, it is the student's responsibility to see that an official transcript is mailed directly to the UNC Asheville Registrar's Office. There is a $100 administrative fee for all students participating in a UNC Asheville-sponsored summer, semester or yearlong study abroad program.
