Application Form Instructions

 

There are several components that make up the entire application to study abroad; one component is an actual application form. 

If the program application form has specific instructions, the student should follow them.  Examples of these specific instructions may include an essay topic that differs from the TCNJ required personal statement, specific reference forms, passport size photos, or application fees. 

When requirements exist such as different forms or essay topics, the student should substitute the specific program forms for TCNJ forms or personal statement topic.  For instance, if the program application requires a specific reference form, the student should submit their references on the program form instead of the TCNJ form.  If an essay topic is required, the student should submit that topic in place of their TCNJ personal statement.  Include all extra requirements such as passport photos and application fees with the entire study abroad application packet (items on the application checklist).  Application fees required by the program are in addition to the $300 TCNJ application fee which should be made by check payable to TCNJ.  Application fees required by the program should be made by check payable to the program sponsor.

If the application contains a home school nomination form The Office of Off Campus and International programs will complete this form when you turn in your application materials.
