1An SME is defined as a firm with 500 or fewer 

employees or that otherwise qualifies as a small 

business under SBA regulations (see http://

www.sba.gov/services/contractingopportunities/

sizestandardstopics/index.html). Parent companies, 

affiliates, and subsidiaries will be considered when 

determining business size. Non-profit educational 

institutions will be considered SMEs for purposes 

of this guidance. The dual pricing reflects the 

Commercial Service’s user fee schedule that became 

effective May 1, 2008 (see http://www.export.gov/

newsletter/march2008/initiatives.html for 

additional information). 

European market in the cities of Lisbon,

(2) to help participants assess current

establishing valuable contacts with 

prospective students and educational

recruitment and potential partnerships. 

Participation Requirements 

All parties interested in participating 

in the mission to Europe must submit a 

complete application package for 

consideration to the U.S. Department of 

Commerce. All applicants will be 

evaluated on their ability to meet certain 

conditions and best satisfy the selection 

criteria as outlined below. The mission 

will open on a rolling basis to a 

minimum of 13 and a maximum of 15 

appropriately accredited U.S. 

educational institutions. Both U.S. 

educational institutions already 

recruiting students and developing 

partnerships in the region and those 

who are new to recruiting and 

developing partnerships in the region 

may apply. 

Selection Criteria for Participation 

• Consistency of the applicant’s goals 

and objectives with the stated scope of 

the mission. 

• Applicant’s potential for doing 

business in Western Europe, including 

the likelihood of service exports 

(education)/knowledge transfer 

resulting from the mission.

institution must be represented at the 

student fair by an employee. No agents 

will be allowed to represent a school on 

the mission or participate at the student 

fair. Agents will also not be allowed into 

the fairs to solicit new partnerships. If 

the Department of Commerce receives 

an incomplete application, the 

Department may reject the application, 

request additional information, or take 

the lack of information into account 

when evaluating the applications. 

Participants must travel to stops in 

Portugal, Spain, United Kingdom on the

the service. 

Fees and Expenses 

After an institution has been selected 

to participate on the mission, a payment 

to the Department of Commerce in the 

form of a participation fee is required. 

The participation fee is $2,895 for one 

principal representative from each nonprofit educational institution or 

educational institution with less than 

500 employees and $2,927 for for-profit 

universities with over 500 employees.1

An institution can choose to participate 

in the optional stop in France for an 

additional $1,009 for one principal 

representative from each non-profit 

educational institution or educational 

institution with less than 500 employees 

and $1,026 for for-profit universities 

with over 500 employees. The fee for 

each additional representative is $500. 

Expenses for lodging, some meals, 

incidentals, and all travel (except 

transportation previously noted) will be 

the responsibility of each mission 

participant. The U.S. Department of 

Commerce can facilitate government
