Fees and Application Process

  1. The program fee of $1,780 includes all URI tuition charges, accommodations in the residence halls, fares and admission costs while on program-scheduled trips, special events and the opening and closing banquets. For a 4-bedroom flat on the University of Bath campus, if available, there is an additional charge. The fee does not include: air and ground transportation to and from Bath at the beginning and end of the program, textbooks, personal needs, meals nor individual travel or other activities outside the established program schedule. Each person should consequently budget additional money for these expenses. Traveller's checks are accepted throughout Britain, and each participant should carry at least one major credit card for budget-breaking purchases or for securing cash advances.

  2. A non-refundable deposit of $100.00 must accompany the application form ($200 for couples). The application deadline is March 15, 1998. Applications received after this date will be accepted on a space available basis. Those requesting special accommodations for the disabled must apply by February 1, 1998. Because space is limited applicants are accepted on a first-come first-serve basis. The balance of the fee is payable in full by May 15, 1998, and cannot be thereafter refunded (except with the permission of the URI Director of Special Programs). However, if for any reason the program is cancelled, all money, including the deposit, will be refunded.

  3. The University of Rhode Island reserves the right to increase the fee if inflation or changes in monetary exchange rates warrant.
