Notice of Summer and Fall 2021 Partner Program Application Acceptance Deadline Extension

UCF Abroad has extended the application acceptance deadline for all Summer and Fall 2021 partner programs from February 15 to March 15. The purpose of this deadline extension is to grant students more time to consider their best program options and to more thoroughly prepare for their time overseas. All applicants are advised to make note of the following important considerations:

1) Although UCF Abroad is extending our own application deadline, partner organizations will also have their own deadlines that should be taken into consideration. Students should confirm the application deadline with the partner sponsoring the program as well.
2) All students are encouraged to remain flexible with their study abroad plans. Due to ongoing uncertainty created by the Covid-19 pandemic, program operation statuses may change unexpectedly. Students should proactively stay informed regarding their program’s cancelation and withdraw policies as well as participation deferment options.
