Affiliates

The University of Mississippi has approved affiliate programs in which students may participate. Affiliate programs allow students to study at sites that may not be available through exchanges. Some also offer unique programs that are tailored to particular academic or career interests.

UM students who study abroad through affiliate programs remain enrolled as University of Mississippi students while abroad and receive UM credit. They are billed through their UM Bursar accounts, though the program price is not set at the cost of UM tuition. The cost of an affiliate program usually runs between $11,000 and $19,000 per semester. Federal and state aid, as well as some UM scholarships, can help defray the cost.

Affiliates are selected because they fit the academic requirements of UM students. Because of our close relationship with the staff of these organizations, we prefer their programs in particular locations or for particular majors to ensure that our students get the highest quality experience abroad.

Advantages:

• Program coordinators are on site to help students get accustomed to their new environment;
• most programs are all-inclusive, meaning they provide food and housing, excursions, and activities in addition to the academic requirements.
