Summer Exchange Programs
The summer semester can be the most convenient time to study abroad: fewer courses are offered on UNF's campus, and it can be nice to escape the Jacksonville heat! Our summer study abroad programs allow students to take six credit hours at our partner institutions worldwide. Students also have the opportunity to participate in a Summer A and a Summer B program in order to earn up to 12 credits and spend more time immersed in other cultures.
Applications for Summer 2024 open Monday, August 28. Contact coggin.abroad@unf.edu for more information.
Students participating in Summer 2024 exchange programs are required to attend two pre-departure meetings. Both are mandatory and take place on the following dates:
- Friday, March TBD, 2024
- Friday, April TBD, 2024

How to Apply
- Apply for or renew your passport. U.S. passport processing time is currently about 8-10 weeks, so apply today.
- Complete the following forms and return them to Coggin Study Abroad (Honors Hall building 10, suite 2125) or email them to coggin.abroad@unf.edu:
- Summer Exchange Application Form (coming soon)
- Summer Study Abroad Policies Form (coming soon)
- Learning Agreement (coming soon) - See instructions below
- After completing steps 1 and 2 above, you'll receive further instructions on completing the application process.
How to Complete the Learning Agreement
The "learning agreement" ensures that you know exactly how your courses from abroad will transfer back to UNF before your study abroad begins. The form can be signed manually or digitally, but it does require a conversation with your academic advisor or your Coggin Study Abroad advisor. Refer to your summer study abroad program's webpage to review the courses you may choose from. With your advisor, enter each course you plan to take abroad and how it will count toward your major. Be sure you have completed the necessary prerequisites when choosing your program and/or courses. After completing the form with your advisor - and having both of you sign it - save a scanned copy to email to coggin.abroad@unf.edu.
Payment Process
About the Student Cost
Each summer study abroad has costs associated with the products and services that are part of the program, including student lodging, business and/or cultural visits and excursions, entry fees, international health insurance, etc. Students are responsible for paying these costs to the partner school or the company/organization providing the service. Sometimes this is done via credit card, sometimes via international wire transfer. Students will receive instructions from their host institution regarding these costs and the best way to pay them.
UNF Tuition and Fees
Students pay UNF for their summer tuition and fees instead of paying tuition and fees to their host university. This payment process is handled the same way as if the student were staying at UNF for the summer term. See the UNF Controller's Office webpage for tuition and fees for more information. Students may also contact UNF Student Financial Services in Hicks Hall.
