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.
Contact us for more information or visit us in Coggin College of Business (Bldg. 42), Room 1104.
Summer 2025 applications open August 26.

Apply Now!
The Coggin Study Abroad 2025 Application will be available on August 26. Until then, take a moment to review the Coggin Study Abroad Agreement.After Applying (What's Next?)
Once you have submitted your application, Coggin Study Abroad will follow up regarding your next steps, including the following:

- Complete the Learning Agreement.
- Review how to complete this document with your Coggin study abroad advisor below.
- Submit your University study abroad application for approval to travel.

How to Complete the Learning Agreement
The Learning Agreement ensures that you know exactly how your courses from abroad will transfer back to UNF and your college before your study abroad begins. The form can be signed manually or digitally, but it does require a conversation with your Coggin Study Abroad Advisor. You will not be officially accepted into a summer program until your learning agreement has been completed.
- Refer to your summer study abroad program's webpage to review the courses you may choose from.
- If classes offered abroad change later on, Coggin Study Abroad will work with you to update your Learning Agreement as necessary.
- With your study abroad advisor, enter each course you plan to take abroad and how it will count toward your major.
- Be sure you have completed, or will have completed, the necessary prerequisites for your courses abroad before your program begins.
- Make sure that both you and your study abroad advisor sign the form.
- Save a scanned copy and email it to coggin.abroad@unf.edu.
Payment Process
About the Student Cost
Each summer study abroad has costs associated with the 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 directly to the partner school or the company/organization providing the service. Sometimes this is completed 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 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.
Mandatory Pre-Departure and Re-Entry Sessions
Students who participate in Coggin Summer Exchange Programs are required to attend pre-departure and re-entry sessions that bookend their independent study abroad experiences. The pre-departure orientations cover topics such as academics abroad, grade/credit transfer, financial aid, scholarships, safety, intercultural adaptation, logistics, and travel tips. Upon return, the re-entry workshop address reverse culture shock, how to identify competencies, adding study abroad to a resume, and leveraging study abroad experiences during job or graduate school applications. These mandatory session take place on the following dates:
- Friday, March 7, 2025 (9 AM-12 PM)
- Friday, April 4, 2025 (9 AM-12 PM)
- Friday, August/September TBD, 2025
