The International and Domestic Programs Office requires all students to meet with an advisor as part of their program research and application process. Our office provides students with tools to help them determine which program best suits their academic and personal goals. Our advisors also encourage students to tailor their preparation for off-campus study to their unique needs, goals, and interests.
All students* interested in studying abroad must attend a Getting Started with the IDPO info session, or watch the 鈥Getting Started with the IDPO鈥 video series, in addition to completing a quiz, prior to meeting with an international programs advisor. Domestic program applicants do not need to attend an info session; however, they must meet with the Domestic Programs Advisor. Before scheduling an advising appointment, we ask students to fill out an International and Domestic Programs Advising Form. Please follow these steps to fill out an advising form:
