Even though you are not physically at Duke when you study away, you are still considered a Duke student on study away status, which allows you to retain the right of access to Duke libraries, information technology, financial aid, student services, career services, and academic advising. You are supported by your academic dean and members of the faculty. Duke students participating in Duke-Approved programs and petitions are also covered by Duke’s International SOS for travel assistance and medical evacuation services.
No. The Study Abroad Fee is mandatory. Fees are set by the Board of Trustees and are not waived under any circumstances.
