2. Billing Arrangements
Students attending non-Northwestern summer study abroad programs or unaffiliated programs are responsible for paying their programs directly for all charges except the Northwestern Study Abroad Administrative Fee which will be billed to students by Northwestern. If a program mistakenly bills Northwestern instead of the student's family, we will forward the bill and contact the program about the error. (For more information on the Study Abroad Administrative Fee, click here.)

3. Paying Deposits
Students should check with their program office for information
on deposits. Any deposits required will be paid to the program,
not to the Study Abroad Office, and will be credited towards
your balance due on either your program invoice or your Northwestern
University invoice.

4. Billing Arrangements
Students
attending the Northwestern-affiliated programs in Arles,
France, Guanajuato,
Mexico and Laval,
Canada will be billed by the Northwestern University Student
Accounts Office for the program fee and SAAF in May. Balances
must be paid by June 1st .
Students attending all other summer study abroad programs
will be billed by Northwestern for the SAAF only.
The host institution or program will bill for tuition, room,
board, and/or any other fees. Please contact your program
for payment deadlines.

5. Arranging and Paying for Flights
You are responsible for making your own flight
reservations and payments according to your program's specific
dates and rules. Some programs include international group
airfare in their program costs. Consult your program office
or program literature for more detailed advice. The Northwestern
Study Abroad Office frequently works with STA
Travel, which has a branch in Evanston.
