Dear Parents,

You may already know yourself that studying abroad can be a "life-changing experience," in the words of many participants. It is also becoming an important component of a modern liberal arts education. Like any such academic experience, it requires careful planning and invites a wide range of questions.

We have designed these pages with you in mind. You may be wondering how you can get involved, how you can learn more about study abroad, or what exactly we do (and don't do). You may be concerned about health and safety overseas. We have tried to provide as much information as possible on our policies and procedures, as well as resources for you to use throughout the study abroad process.

From pre-departure to return, please let us know if you or your student has any questions or concerns we can help with.

Sincerely,

Study Abroad and Study Away Programs
