Identifying Your Goals and Preferences

There are many different program options and it can sometimes be a little overwhelming to know where to begin. It can help to first think about what your goals and priorities are for a study abroad or away experience. What do you want to get out of your study abroad or away experience? What do you want to achieve or accomplish personally, academically or professionally? What is motivating you to study abroad or away?

Once you have identified some goals, consider the different factors involved with choosing a program. How would you prioritize them? Below are some of the factors you may consider:

• Type of experience/learning environment: Do you want to travel with a group of 菠菜网lol正规平台 students or are you looking for a more independent experience?
• Academics: Are there any specific courses or requirements you are looking to fulfill during your program?
• Location and geographic interests: Are there particular locations you are interested in? Do you want to be in a big city or small town?
• Timing/length: What time of year do you want to go (ex: fall, summer)? How long do you want to be away (ex: 2-3 weeks, semester)?
• Housing: What type of housing arrangements would you prefer?
• Language: Do you want to study in another language or take courses in English?
• Finances: Are you looking for a program that does not cost much more than being on campus? Would you like to use your financial aid for study abroad?
• Accessibility: Are there certain services or accommodations you would require to be successful? Please note that students requesting accommodations on their study abroad program due to disability-related limitations are required to register with the Accessible Education Center (AEC) at least 60 days before the program start date.  However, we strongly encourage registering prior to or as part of applying to the program in order to inform a student’s choice of program. If you need accommodations, please register online.
