YOU MUST AGREE TO EACH OF THE FOLLOWING IN ORDER TO PARTICIPATE IN THIS COURSE:

 I accept full responsibility for payment of all program costs for the JN/CU/SO/LS/UR GLOBAL JOURNALISM: CUBAcourse and the $50 study abroad fee. If I receive less Financial Aid than the amount listed above, I understand that I am responsible for paying the balance to Saint Peter’s University.

I understand that I must register for the course listed above before the end of the add/drop period. Failure to register by this date will automatically cancel my participation in this course, and a refund will not be given to me.

I understand that it is my responsibility to resolve any outstanding balance (separate from the charges of the travel course) due to Saint Peter's University prior to signing up for this international travel course. Failure to do so will prevent me from participating in the international travel course.

 I understand that should a program cancellation become necessary for safety reasons, an emergency, an act of God or for reasons beyond Saint Peter’s control prior to student departure, every effort will be made to refund recoverable costs to participants. The time of program cancellation will determine the actual recoverable costs. The closer the program is to the start date, the less recoverable costs will be available.

Note: Because full refunds are often not possible, students may wish to consider purchasing trip cancellation insurance that can be obtained through many travel agents or insurance companies. Policies vary on what triggers trip cancellation, so students should check with the Director of the Center for Global Learning for more details.
