Direct enrollment programs allow you to enroll directly into the foreign university, paying tuition and fees to that university instead of Fitchburg State (you do not have to pay Fitchburg State tuition and fees while you are abroad). You will, however, be responsible for transportation, housing and a student visa.
These programs include courses taught at foreign universities and require additional paperwork (the Preliminary Registration Approval Form, or "PRAF") for credits to transfer.
Contact Nicole Salerno, Study Abroad Advisor nsalerno@fitchburgstate.edu for assistance with this form, and work with your Departmental Advisor and the Registrar for course approval.
