Student Health Insurance: Traveler’s insurance is not the same as health insurance. INTERLINK requires students and their dependents to have health insurance. Travel insurance is designed for people traveling to cover cancellations, personal belongings and only emergency medical treatment, whereas international health insurance is designed to cover inpatient treatment check-ups and continuing treatment of chronic conditions abroad. Refund policy: All students requesting a refund will receive a full-tuition refund during the week of registration. No tuition will be refunded for four-week terms after registration week. During the second week, 50% of all tuition paid for the term is refunded. After the second week, no tuition refunds will be made for the term. Refunds for students who must withdraw because of illness or emergency will be considered on a case-by-case basis. Board refunds will be prorated as per standard UNCG policy. No refund will be given for application fees, room, university fees, or insurance. On-Campus Housing Deposit Policy: Students who want to live in the on-campus dorms must pay a $100 non-refundable deposit and $75 refundable key deposit three weeks before the first day of orientation (the first class date). If the student does not pay this deposit, they will not be eligible for on-campus housing. On the return of the room key, the student will receive their $75 deposit. The student must email uncg@interlink.edu to confirm their arrival date and time. We can only move students into the on-campus room Monday – Friday 8:30 AM-4:30 PM.

Off-campus Apartments – INTERLINK provides information about apartments located near the UNCG campus; however, we are not involved with contracts, security deposits, or the furnishing of apartments. It is best for students to see apartments before signing a contract, so we recommend arriving at least one week before the beginning of classes to visit sites and to complete paperwork. Prices typically range between $400-$800 per month, depending on the type/size of the apartment and the number of roommates. The length of the contract ranges between three months and one year. Students who are admitted to INTERLINK can request a list of apartments that have been recommended by current and former INTERLINK students. On-campus housing/Dormitory – Living in a dorm provides great opportunities for learning English and meeting people.
