Outbound Students

Congratulations, you have been accepted into a program and are going to study abroad! In a few months (or weeks!) you will embark on the adventure of a lifetime; however, there is much to be done before you go. It may seem overwhelming now but remember that you can always stop by the study abroad office with your myriad of questions! Check out this section of the web to understand things you should do before going abroad and make sure you plan on attending our pre-departure orientation session for students going abroad in the winter and spring.
