SUMMER STUDY : SWEDEN : PASSPORT INFORMATION

The United States has recently instituted new passport regulations. As a result, the U.S. State Department has been flooded with new passport applications. This influx of new applications has increased the typical turnaround time for obtaining a passport from 6-8 weeks to 10-12 weeks and in some instances even longer. Therefore, we strongly urge you to apply for (or renew) your passport immediately if you are contemplating attending the summer program in Lund, Sweden.

Currently, the cost to obtain a new U.S. Passport is $97 while a passport may be renewed for $67. If you are seeking a new passport, you must apply in person. Be aware that some locations require an appointment in advance, so be sure to call before showing up. For additional information about obtaining a U.S. Passport, check out the following links.
