This fee, which will be collected by our office, will be due at the time you have the Director of Study Abroad sign your visitation credit form. A fee waiver can be signed if you need to delay payment until your financial aid arrives. If you have questions, please ask Dr. Betty Webb. There are a variety of programs available, some comparable to Meredith in price, some less expensive, some more. Unlike many colleges and universities, Meredith allows its students to travel with their financial assistance.
Scholarships are available too.
Each Study Abroad participant works closely with the Office of Study Abroad, her adviser, and various departmental heads to ensure that the classes she intends to take will transfer back to Meredith. To guard against unforeseen circumstances, we recommend that each student have approved twice as many classes as she will take. Studying Abroad rarely hinders a student's timely graduation. Your daughter will need to use common sense and take the same precautions as in the United States. The Office of Study Abroad regularly consults the U.S. State Department's web site for travel advisories and maintains contacts with students abroad.
