Education Abroad Forms

For every USF student

To apply for education abroad programs at USFSP, you must submit the following items to the Education Abroad office in Bayboro Hall, room 204. Please contact the Education Abroad office at 873-4851 or send an e-mail to Wendy Baker, Interim Education Abroad Coordinator, if you have any questions or concerns.

2. Participant Contract
3. Medical Questionnaire
4. Liability Waiver
5. Course Approval Form
6. Education Abroad Release Form

8. CISI Insurance Enrollment Form

It is the students responsibility to get all of the signatures needed for the course approval form. A student must first see their academic advisor. He/ She will be able to let the student know how the course will fit with his/ her major. Once an advisor has singed it, the course approval should also be signed by the professor in charge of the trip.

To finish you application use our "E-shop" to pay your $300 or $500 deposit. Please print a receipt so that it can be submitted with your application package. This deposit is refundable only if you are not accepted on the program, or the program is cancelled by USFSP. To guarantee full consideration, submit your package before the due date. Applications will be accepted until the first day of classes.
