Direct Exchange Programs

Students are charged a flat rate of 15 credits per semester plus academic fees and the $100 study abroad fee. Students studying at the American University in Bulgaria and Sunderland University pay their tuition, fees, room and board at the University of Maine.

Recommended Programs
Students who participate in one of the recommended non-exchange study abroad programs pay all costs directly to the study abroad program. The University of Maine charges a $100 study abroad fee billed to the student’s account. Students who participate in an approved non-exchange program earn transfer credit at the University of Maine, and in most cases they may use their financial aid for study abroad.
In addition to the programs listed in this section, students may opt instead to enroll directly as a visiting-non-degree student at a university abroad, provided that the overseas university accepts such students and will issue an academic transcript at the completion of the student's program of study. Any University of Maine student who is considering a study abroad program that is not on this list must meet with the Study Abroad Advisor prior to completing an application. Remember, the internet is not always a good resource for finding reputable programs!
