Education Abroad 101 General Overview
Sign up to attend an Education Abroad 101 general overview session to learn more about opportunities available to students. Topics include information regarding cost, funding, program types, application processes, next steps, etc.These sessions are ideal for students just getting started who haven't already committed to a program. Education Abroad recommends students attend one of these sessions first before scheduling an individual meeting with an advisor if they are seeking general information.
Virtual Advising Hours with Education Abroad Advisors
Education Abroad Advisors offers virtual advising appointments. In-person appointments are only available on a case-by-case basis at the discretion of the Advisor. For an in-person appointment, please make sure to contact your Advisor directly.Advisor availability can be found on Navigate and through each individual Advisor’s appointment link below.
Which Advisor Should I Meet With?
All advisors can provide general advice on different program types and funding opportunities available to students.HOWEVER, each Advisor primarily works with certain program types, and can therefore provide more information on their own programs. When possible, we encourage students to meet with the appropriate Advisor.
Please check your program brochure in the Education Abroad portal and meet with the Program Contact listed on the Program Overview tab. The Program Contact you need to talk to may be an individual outside of Education Abroad.
