Refunds

Students who withdraw from study abroad programs are not eligible to receive a refund of any non-refundable program deposit or the GW Study Abroad Fee. Students who withdraw prior to departure may be responsible for program costs incurred on their behalf by the University or their program sponsor. Students who withdraw after their program abroad is underway may be eligible for a partial refund depending upon the program policies and the University's refund schedule. Students who are dismissed from their study abroad programs are not eligible for refund and are subject to additional expenses depending upon the circumstances of the dismissal. Eligibility for possible refunds will be calculated from the first day of the program abroad, not according to the Foggy Bottom campus calendar. As refunds vary due to a variety of factors, please contact the Office for Study Abroad to discuss particular circumstances.
