Planning for Study Abroad

Not sure where to start?

Follow these steps to begin your study abroad journey

STEP 1 - Define your goals. How you want to grow your global awareness will impact where you study abroad. Speak with your advisor as well as an EGL advisor to identify viable options.

STEP 2 - Create a Course Plan. There are opportunities every semester, and with a little planning you'll be able to study abroad and stay on track for your major. See sample sequences that incorporate a semester abroad for every major in the School of Business here.

STEP 3 - Find Your Experience. Committing to an abroad program is your final step. EGL advisors can help you match the goals you developed in STEP 1 and the course plan you identified in STEP 2. Also consult the EGL major maps to further identify programs and start your application.
