Out-of-state flight reimbursement

Augustana College is committed to enrolling a diverse student body and welcomes students from across the United States.

Augustana offers a one-time flight reimbursement up to $500 for first-year, transfer and graduate students who:

• live outside of Illinois,
• have applied for admission to Augustana College, and
• complete an official campus visit the year prior to their enrollment: by May 1 for first-year and transfer students, and by April 15 for graduate students.

Students are welcome to travel alone or with family, but the reimbursement only applies towards the student's flight costs.

To be eligible for reimbursement:

• The campus visit must be an official visit, scheduled directly with the Office of Admissions, athletics, or a fine arts department, and the visit take place by May 1 of the year prior to a first-year or transfer student's enrollment, or by April 15 of the year prior to a graduate student's enrollment.
• Students must live outside Illinois and require airline transportation to travel to campus.
• Students will have applied for admission and have been deemed admissible by their admissions counselor prior to the visit.
• Students will submit their airline receipt to their admissions counselors via email or mail within 30 days of visiting or by May 1, whichever comes first.
• First-year, transfer and graduate students are eligible.

Eligible out-of-state flight reimbursement recipients will receive a check in the mail covering the cost of their flight up to $500 within 2-3 weeks of their campus visit and submission of the airline receipt.

Please contact the Office of Admissions for more information.
