(5) Is the student's travel related to their academic program of study?
Examples of costs, which might be allowable as increases to the standard cost of attendance include:
- Travel costs associated with coursework required for the student's degree, including an internship or practicum, or arts performances required for a course (see Overseas Study section for details specific to those academic experiences)
- Academically-related, but not necessarily course-related research travel
- Travel to a conference or workshop related to the student's field of study, where the student is the primary beneficiary of the conference experience (vs IU)
- Travel expenses to return to campus to take qualifying exams or defend the dissertation, if incurred during a period of enrollment.
