How to get a U.S. Passport

The cost is approximately $97 for a new passport and $67 for a renewal. You will need to apply for a new passport if:

You have never had one before
If your passport was issued before your 16^th birthday or
If your passport is more than 15 years old.

Passport information is available online at the U.S. Department of State. Passport applications are available at the county clerk's offices, some post offices, public libraries or online at the U.S. Department of State Applications and Forms page.
If you are applying for a passport for the first time, you must apply in person. To search for the passport application location nearest you, visit the U.S. Department of State Passport Facility page. When you apply you will need to provide:

Valid proof of citizenship (certified copy of your birth certificate)
Valid picture ID (valid driver's license and social security card)
Your expired passport (if you are renewing)
Two recent passport-size (2’ x 2’) photos

It takes at least 6 weeks to receive your passport, but this is not guaranteed. It typically takes longer the closer to summer you apply. In 2007, due to changes in policy, there were delays of up to three months in processing new passport applications. For a fee, you may expedite the passport application process and receive your passport in approximately 2 weeks (not guaranteed).

You may apply for renewal of your passport by mail as long as you satisfy certain conditions. Check the U.S. Department of State Passports page for details.

Be sure to make a copy of the identity page of your passport to keep with you in a location that is different from where you store your passport, in case of loss or theft, and a copy to give to your parent/guardian. You should also provide a copy to your study abroad program director or advisor.

Do I need a Visa to Study Abroad?

U.S. Students: Students who are U.S. citizens and carry a U.S. passport do not need a visa to participate on most of GPC's study abroad programs. There are a few exceptions so please read the information for each individual program carefully. Most of the time if a visa is required it will be included in the program costs.

International Students: Permanent Residents who do not carry a U.S. passport may need a visa depending on their country of origin and the host country they wish to travel to. You will need to contact the embassy of the country to which you want to travel to find out if a visa is required. If you do need a visa you will have to provide your letter of acceptance to the study abroad program when you apply. When you travel it is advisable to carry your Permanent Resident Card, Passport and your letter of acceptance to the study abroad program. When you return to the U.S. after your program you will want to have these documents with you and you may be asked to fill out a Form 1-94 at the airport. International Student Advising & Admissions can help you determine what documentation you may need in order to travel.
