Traveling Scholar: Eligibility and Enrollment

Traveling Scholar: Eligibility and Enrollment

The Traveling Scholar Program is for students enrolled in a doctoral program at participating Big Ten Academic Alliance institutions or at the University of Chicago.

Interested students must complete the following steps before submitting an application.

  1. Confirm the opportunity is not available at your home university.
  2. Confirm approval from your advisor who must determine that the Traveling Scholar opportunity is likely to enhance the your doctoral studies.
  3. Confirm support from the host campus course instructor and/or faculty sponsor.
    Conditions of Enrollment
    • Traveling Scholars remain registered at their home universities, paying the regular fees charged when they are in residence.
    • Traveling Scholars must be registered at both institutions.
    • The host institution does not bill traveling Scholars for registration or fees; however, students must provide evidence of tuition paid to the home institution. Host universities provide access to libraries, laboratories, recreational facilities, housing, etc., on the same basis as they are made available to resident graduate students.
    • Traveling Scholars may be assessed fees for certain services or benefits.
    • Traveling Scholars may be required to secure their own health and medical coverage. Check with the appropriate Traveling Scholar campus contact for specifics.
    • Credit earned by Traveling Scholars is accepted at home universities for the equivalent level credit (undergraduate or graduate) upon receipt of grade reports or transcripts from the host university. Credit toward a degree, however, will be at the discretion of the home university or department.
    • Traveling Scholars physically attend courses at another Big Ten Academic Alliance campus. This may require relocating to another community for the duration of the term of instruction.
