Steps in the Study Abroad Process

The study abroad process is extensive, with many different parties and processes at play. We are here to provide your student with guidance throughout every step of the process. Our advisors regularly meet with students to answer questions and offer advice, while this website provides a host of resources to help students find the best program that fits their interests. We suggest you review each of the following links to learn more about the study abroad process:
