1-on-1 Advising

One-On-One Advising

After you attend a Study Abroad 101 information session, you are encouraged to make an appointment with the Education Abroad Office to discuss:

• Options for short term, semester-long, and year-long programs
• Scholarship opportunities
• Academic planning
• How to apply

In-person and online options available. In-person appointments take place on the 3rd floor of the Center for Global Innovation (CGI). At the front desk, let them know that you have an appointment with an Education Abroad advisor. For online appointments, you will be sent a Zoom link. 

Before your 1-on-1 appointment, be sure to create an advising profile on the Education Abroad website. Creating a profile will enable the office to better assist you, and allow you to save programs of interest.
