Education Abroad Advising

We are here to help! 

U of A students who are interested in education abroad, and international exchange students who need assistance with their exchange programs at the U of A, can connect with an advisor about:

  • U of A Programs Abroad (including the School in Cortona)  (best day is Monday)
  • Semester and Full-Year Exchange Programs  (best day is Tuesday)
  • Assistance to international exchange students already at U of A  (best day is Tuesday)
  • e3 or Summer Programs  (best day is Wednesday)
  • International Internships  (best day is Thursday)
  • Funding & Awards for Go Abroad opportunities

PLEASE NOTE:

  • Morning drop-in advising is less busy and you will have shorter wait times.
  • If you arrive close to the morning and afternoon closing times, we may not be able to serve you.
  • We do not provide advice on obtaining foreign country work permits, visas, study permits, etc.  You should direct all inquiries to the nearest consulate or embassy for your destination country.
