Request for U.S. Passport Funds

Do you wish to request additional financial assistance to pay for a U.S. passport? If so, please fill out the form below.

You may request funds to offset costs for either a passport renewal or an application for a brand new passport. Please be explicit with your requests and know that, you will need to provide images of receipts of your expenses before Denison will provide you with funding. We are not able to provide funds without some kind of documentation of costs. You must receive need-based financial aid to be eligible for this funding.

We will respond to all requests via email.

*You must be approved for a Denison-sponsored program that requires travel abroad to be eligible for these funds.*

To learn how much the U.S. Department of State charges to obtain/renew a passport, please visit this site: https://travel.state.gov/content/travel/en/passports/how-apply/fees.html We will cover standard processing costs, not expedited processing; we will cover standard shipping, not rush shipping. Please note that the prices on the DOS site do not include shipping costs.

Funds will be transferred via ACH after you are approved by Denison for your program, after you have provided images of receipts of your expenses (when prompted by an approval email), and after you electronically sign your full name on this form where you attest/verify/agree that if you withdraw from your program you are responsible for paying the funds back to Denison (check or cash) within 14 business days of notifying the Center for Global Programs of your official withdrawal from the program. If you cannot pay up front, the amount will be added to your student account. This is to ensure the funds are spent responsibly, according to the wishes of the donor family, and that the funding is sustainable for a large number of students with need.

Have you been officially approved for an off-campus study experience by Denison? (Note: This means you have received written confirmation that you have been approved to participate in a Denison-sponsored program.)*

Yes

Unfortunately, you must be approved to your program before you can apply for funds. Once you receive your official approval letter, please apply again. If you have any questions, please email ocsfinance@denison.edu

Do you receive need-based financial aid?*

Yes

This funding is only available to students who have demonstrated financial need. If you have questions about your financial aid, please contact finaid@denison.edu.
