Should a student withdraw from a study abroad course, the student will be responsible for paying for all expenses incurred on their behalf. The deadline to withdraw from a course with no obligation to reimburse the College for expenses incurred is 1st December for winter courses and 1st April for summer courses. For spring courses with a trip abroad over spring break, the deadline is the same as the last day for schedule changes without grade. I understand and agree that if I withdraw from a study abroad course after the deadline stated above, I will be responsible for reimbursing the College for all expenses incurred on my behalf.*
