Academic departments and colleges may assist with scholarships and grants.

Preparation

Students are required to participate in the prep course (IAS 369R, 1 credit hour) during the second block of the semester before departure. Part-time BYU students and non-BYU students pay an additional tuition fee for enrolling in this prep class.

Passports must be valid for at least six months beyond the end of the program and have at least two blank pages.

Accompanying spouses need to be credit-bearing participants on the program. Spouses also will need to apply online and take the preparation course.

International study programs are physically, emotionally, and mentally taxing and you must be in good health to participate. These programs often take place in international locations that do not have the same level of safety and services in terms of transportation, living conditions, residential accommodations, food, public behavior, and policing that you may be used to on campus. If you have further questions or concerns on this, please see our travel policy.
