Affiliate Programs

Are you interested in taking courses at a foreign university for TTU transfer credit that will not directly affect your TTU GPA? Our affiliate programs, offered in summer, semester, or academic year, allow students to take classes alongside other students from the U.S. and pay tuition directly to the foreign university. Students are responsible for airfare and personal expenses such as food, shopping, passport/visa, etc.

Payment and Cancellation Policy

Students can choose to participate in one of three study abroad program types. Each program type has a different payment process. Read the full Texas Tech Study Abroad Payment guide.

Once accepted to a program, students must officially notify the Study Abroad Office, IN WRITING OR BY EMAIL, if they wish to withdraw. It is NOT SUFFICIENT to withdraw an application on-line, or to fail to complete requirements. Students must also notify the program provider, host institution, or faculty program leader as appropriate. Students who withdraw from a study abroad program and do not return to Texas Tech for that term should contact the Registrar's Office to understand how their enrollment at Texas Tech may be affected. Read the full Texas Tech Study Abroad Cancellation Policy.
