Student Handbook - Passport

A valid passport is required for you to enter and leave your home and host countries. If you already have one, make sure it will not expire until 6 months after the end date of your program—in some cases this is a requirement. If you do not have a passport, apply for one immediately and request the fastest service possible.

Keep a record of your passport number and make two photocopies of the identification page along with other essential ID cards or documents: carry one set abroad and leave one set securely at home. Having this information will expedite the replacement of your passport in case it gets lost or stolen.
