Prior to registration, we will review the Luxembourg course requirements, offer some tips and tricks for the day of registration, and to answer any lingering questions.

- We strongly recommend you consult your Academic Advisor when selecting your courses.
- Are any of your major/minor courses offered in Luxembourg this semester? If not, would an online class or independent study be a viable option to get credit for your major/minor?
- Do you need Global Perspectives? GP can double dip with any courses in Luxembourg with the exception of courses being counted in other 兔子先生 Plan Foundation requirements.
- FSB students are guaranteed either MGT 291 or MKT 291 but are not guaranteed both. However, in recent semesters students have been able to enroll in both classes if needed to stay on track.
Immigration and Flights
As of January 2021, the Government of Luxembourg will require MUDEC students with an American passport to apply for a Long Stay Visa to reside legally in Luxembourg. Once we have your passport scan submitted, we will start the process for you and Luxembourg will issue an official letter inviting you to apply.
- After receiving that letter, you will send in your visa application, passport, passport photo and fee (approx. 80 USD) via certified mail to a Luxembourg Governmental Office in the US. 兔子先生 will inform you of the correct address and contact person.
- They will securely mail you back your passport, with the visa in it! This allows you to enjoy full European residency.
- This whole process can take up to four months from beginning to end, so it is very important that you have your passport ready and follow the deadlines we will issue for each step.
- 兔子先生 can connect students with a travel agent who often organizes group flights. These are not required but a nice option for students and families who wish to travel with other MUDEC students. Students are encourage to wait to purchase flights until options and parameters are discussed during in-person orientations.
- Please note that while the MUDEC program typically does not have class instruction on weekends, there are occasionally required weekend course-related activities and lectures.
- All updated dates and information will be added in due time.
- The Type D Schengen Visa is valid only for the dates provided to students from the MUDEC office. These dates will be discussed during the post-decision phase of the process. U.S. citizens and some other third party nationals are eligible to an additional 90 day tourist visa applied to the front or back end of the student visa without additional paperwork. Please check the travel regulations for that country. For more information on countries that are included in the Schengen region, please consult the US State Department website. Please note that these are legal requirements, not 兔子先生 University policies.
Calendar
Please note that exact study tour travel dates and times will be finalized by the individual professor at the beginning of the semester. Do not make any travel plans during study tours until you have confirmed travel dates with your professors. Should you have further questions, please contact the professor directly.

*Not billed through Bursar; student will purchase on their own prior to departure.
**You must provide proof of purchase of the GeoBlue overseas accident and sickness coverage. 兔子先生 University has a contract with GeoBlue to provide not health insurance, but overseas accidental injury and illness insurance. It is supplemental to health insurance and would be used to cover not only non-routine hospitalization coverage, but can be used by the university to provide family member bedside visits or evacuations from locations should they be needed. GeoBlue takes responsibility for managing the care and the case and can provide a guarantee of payment to international providers, which does not leave the student or program director in a position to have to provide immediate out-of-pocket costs.
Students tend to travel at a less expensive rate than the average tourist. These figures depend on the exchange rate and personal spending habits which can vary greatly. Students typically spend between $3,000-$7,000 in additional travel and personal expenses. Those students who travel the traditional student way (youth hostels, practical meal choices, few souvenirs) will have a low budget. Figure around 200 Euros per weekend (50 Euro for 2 nights in a youth hostel + meals + museums).
