New Mexico State University

AFFILIATED PROGRAMS & PRIVATE CONTRACTORS
  Are affiliated study abroad sites contracted campuses of NMSU?
No. Universities and institutes used by NMSU for transfer credit or distance education study abroad are in no way part of New Mexico State University. NMSU agrees to allow students to study abroad with the expectation of receiving transfer credit or graded NMSU credit upon successful completion of a course of approved study. Students studying at these sites do so at their own initiative, risk, and financial obligation. By signing the Acceptance of Terms of Agreement of an NMSU Study Abroad Agreement, students acknowledge the independent relationship of these affiliated universities and institutes.
  Does NMSU have contractural relations with any affiliated programs?
Yes. NMSU has entered into some agreements for exchange programs (such as ISEP) that obligate the university to monitor that benefits (such as tuition waivers, housing, and meal plans) are provided as designated in the agreements. NMSU will assist students with resolving problems related to receiving these contracted benefits only.
  Will NMSU Resolve Student Disputes with Private Contractors?
No. NMSU students enter into various private contracts for instruction, housing, meals, and other benefits, in order to study abroad. NMSU cannot directly assist students with the resolution of contract disputes that arise with private contractors. Students should contact the host program administrators for assistance with resolving these disputes according to the laws in effect in the local area.
