While BYU strives to ensure compliance with foreign countries’ laws, it has not determined whether every country recognizes BYU-issued credentials or academic credits. Therefore, the students are responsible for deciding whether their countries, educational institutions, or professions accept credentials or academic credits granted by BYU. Students may be subject to tax requirements in addition to tuition costs. It is the student’s responsibility to determine whether these taxes apply in their respective countries.
