The student is responsible for paying QU’s study abroad health insurance, and an emergency medical/security service plan. Payment must be given to the Office of Multicultural and Global

Education by set deadlines. This fee will be paid for each month the student is out of the country.

Failure to make the required payments will disqualify a student from receiving transfer credit.
