Student Rights and Responsibilities Abroad

All students enrolled in Brown University’s summer programs are subject to the Student Rights and Responsibilities defined by the campus and the Office of Student Life.
Students should be advised that while abroad, they are additionally subject to the laws of the host country.  Staff abroad is not qualified to offer legal counsel or intercede with local authorities on behalf of a student.  Any offense committed while abroad may be reviewed by the University judicial system.
 
The Student Rights and Responsibility page on the OSL website.
Students should carefully consider their decision to study abroad on a Brown University program.  These programs are academically rigorous and students must be prepared to meet their academic obligations while adjusting to a foreign language, culture and climate.  These intensive programs are challenging emotionally and physically – yet rewarding in personal and academic ways.  The pace of the ITAL 0110 course is such that students with no previous language learning experience may find it difficult to keep up. It is, therefore, recommended that students have 2+ years of previous study in a (Romance) language.
