Strasbourg Study Abroad Program
Application Requirements
Any student in good standing at a law school accredited by the American Bar Association is eligible for the program. Students attending a law school other than Regent University School of Law will be required to furnish a letter of good standing from the dean of their law school.
Enrollment is limited to 40 students. Your application, accompanied by a non-refundable $250 registration fee, must be received by February 20. Applications are considered on a first-come, first-served basis. The program may reach admission limitations (40 students) before February 20 so you should consider submitting your registration early. However, applications received after February 20 will be considered according to space and accommodation availability.
Financial aid for Summer 2012
Federal student loans are available for the cost of attendance: airfare, tuition, fees, books, and room/board. Personal expenses, purchases, and additional travel costs are not included.
The 2011-2012 FAFSA (present year) includes Summer 2012. If you already have loans for the current year, then you only need to extend your Grad PLUS loan for summer. Loans will not be processed for Summer 2012 until February - after Spring 2012 has been completed. If you did not receive student loans this year, but will need loans for the summer, then you should submit the 2011-2012 FAFSA before the end of 2011.
Students will need to purchase airfare prior to the disbursement of summer student loans. Hence, summer loan disbursements will reimburse the student airfare expenditures.
Room & Board
Students in the program are provided living quarters in private dormitories near the University of Strasbourg. Meals will be available at the dormitory. The meal plan includes two meals per weekday (breakfast and dinner).
The extra charge for having a spouse in the dormitory will be $1,060. The extra charge for having a child in the room will be as follows:
- for a child under 4 years old in an individual bed in the room of the parents -$820 per child
- for a child from age 4 to age 12 in an individual bed in the room of the parents -$1,140 per child
- for a child over age 12 -$1,200 per child
If a spouse or child stays for only a portion of the program, then the extra charge will be calculated on a pro rata basis.
