Study Abroad 101

The first step in beginning your study abroad application process is to attend Study Abroad 101 with a Study Abroad Peer Advisor. During the 45-minute session, you will become familiar with all of your options, including programs, locations, language requirements, and more. After the SA101 Session, you can begin researching programs and meet with an international education advisor.

Note: Study Abroad 101 attendance is required for all undergraduates before meeting with an OIE advisor.
