Faculty Handbook
Visas
It is the responsibility of faculty leaders and students participating in the program to inquire about visa requirements for all countries to be visited, including those before and after the study abroad program. Consult with a travel agent, the consular office of those countries, or check the following visa entry requirements Web sites:
Travelers may be denied entry into, or be deported from, a country for which a required visa has not been obtained. For some countries, certain medical requirements must be met before a visa will be issued. A valid passport is required for all visa applications. Additionally, you must be able to send your passport along with the visa application. OSA will reimburse you for the cost of any mandatory visas to countries that are part of the program itinerary. The Office of Study Abroad will register all students with the U.S. Department of State prior to departure. If you would like to register yourself, it’s an easy process by linking to US Department of State - Bureau of Consular Affairs.
*This site references processing fees - commonly $40 per visa. Your country Embassy may process visas at no charge, but may not be as fast and as reliable.
