If the request is approved, the student's college of enrollment Dean's Office, the Office of Undergraduate Education (OUE), and the sponsoring academic department will each share 1/3 of the costs. If the student is enrolled in the Schreyer Honors College (SHC), the distribution will be 1/4 College, 1/4 (OUE), 1/4 (department), and 1/4 (SHC). The contribution from the Office of Undergraduate Education is capped at $300 per student.
