Advising Appointments
Students preparing to study abroad may work with several different campus advisors. We know it can get confusing, so these descriptions explain which advisors can help you with what and when to meet with them.
Academic Advising
Your Academic Advisor is most familiar with your unique degree plan, so meeting with them at the beginning of the planning process ensures you don't graduate late. We work closely with Academic Advisors to make sure you can go abroad and graduate on time!
To schedule an advising appointment with your Academic Advisor to discuss your plan to study abroad, visit your Raider Success Hub.
Major-Specific Study Abroad Advising
For Engineering Students
Inform the International Engineering Program (IEP) staff that you're planning to study abroad. They help Engineering majors select academically appropriate programs.
Students in the Whitacre College of Engineering will only meet with an International Program Manager to discuss the study abroad process. Engineering majors do not meet with a Study Abroad Counselor in the Office of International Affairs.
For Business Students
Inform the Rawls Center for Global Engagement (CGE) staff that you are planning to study abroad. They help Business majors select academically appropriate programs.
Students in the Rawls College of Business must attend a Rawls First Step session first and then meet with the Rawls CGE staff to start the study abroad process. You will not be permitted to make an appointment with a Study Abroad Counselor in the Office of International Affairs until you meet with the CGE.
For All Other Majors
Information about required advising is embedded in your application. You will not be advised for your program until you have started the application. Students wanting to apply for a study abroad program in a distant semester can check out when the application opens here.
Unsure How to Get Started?
Information Sessions
Information sessions will be held 2 times a week (virtually) and will help you receive basic information about the study abroad process, study abroad programs, steps, requirements, and more!
Walk-In Advising
Students who are unsure about how to start the process can attend walk-in advising with our student assistants and professional staff. While it will not count as your required advising for your program, it will help you start the process, navigate the website, and guide you.
While the walk-in advising is general, Business students are encouraged to attend a Rawls First Step Session. College of Engineering students should meet with the Engineering Diplomats.
