If you are interested, you can include student interviews as part of your application process, which is a great way to get to know your students before the program begins. Admission to the program is at the program director\u2019s discretion. Program directors can choose to admit, waitlist or deny students. Waitlisted students will be notified of their status once the confirmation deadline has passed for admitted students. If you would like to discuss admitting a student to your program after the deadline, please contact your faculty-led programs coordinator in the Office of International Education. This will be handled on a case-by-case basis depending on the status of the program and if travel arrangements have been made.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Notification<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Personalized admission letters include detailed program information such as: program dates, program cost, number of credits that will be awarded, pre-departure and information session dates, and next steps for confirming program participation. Students also receive emails notifying them of the changes in their application status.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Between the application deadline and student confirmation date, program directors are required to host an information session. The intent of the information session is to provide admitted students with an opportunity to meet you and ask additional questions, so that they can make an informed decision before they are required to commit to the program. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<div class=\"cl-wrapper cl-boxout-wrapper\"><div class=\"cl-boxout right  \"><h1>Student Deposits<\/h1><p><br \/>\nStudents pay a non-refundable deposit through <a href=\"https:\/\/web.uri.edu\/enrollment\">Enrollment Services<\/a>.

Your OIE Coordinator will be able to confirm if the deposits have been received. A student is not considered as confirmed participant until all three steps above are completed. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Your OIE Coordinator will contact you regarding final enrollment numbers. If there is insufficient enrollment after the deadline, options may be discussed.<br>Once your program is confirmed, students will be registered and billed. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-9d6595d7 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<section class=\"cl-wrapper cl-boxout-wrapper\"><div class=\"cl-boxout  \"><h1>Contact Information<\/h1>\n\n<p><strong>Office of International Education and National Student Exchange<\/strong><br>Monday \u2013 Friday, 8:30am \u2013 4:30pm EST<br>37 Lower College Road, Kingston, RI, 02881<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Phone: 401.874.2395<br>Email: <a href=\"mailto:oie@etal.uri.edu\">oie@uri.edu<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Advising Appointments<\/strong><br>To schedule an appointment, log into <a href=\"https:\/\/web.uri.edu\/starfish\/resources-for-students\/\">Starfish<\/a>, search for International Education and National Student Exchange and select the advisor based on your college.<\/p>\n\n<\/div><\/section>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Faculty-Led Programs Promote your Program Once your proposal is approved you can begin to promote it through information sessions, brochures, and reaching out to students.
