- DBI Program Fee. Administrative Fee payable directly to the partner school. This could be for course material, some meals, cultural tours, etc. In case it also covers hotels, a note is added to the program fee description.

- Short intensive electives: Most do not have a program fee, unless they offer a cultural program alongside (example Argentina).
- VA benefits excluded for DBI programs.
