Union college International Programs (Study Away) Withdrawal Policy
Should you decide not to participate in your chosen program, you need to let the International Programs office know in writing as soon as possible, since there may be applicants on a wait list who wish to enroll in your place. For those students who withdraw in the period between 60 days before the start date for their program and the start date for their program, those students may be held responsible for a withdrawal fee in accordance with the schedule for Union College’s International Programs (Study Away) Withdrawal Policy, found in the Academic Register.
Students who do not plan to return to Union College for the term in which they were to study away must notify the Dean of Students Office in writing. Neither failure to pre-schedule or register, non-payment of the term bill, nor a request for a transcript constitute official notice of withdrawal or leave of absence.
