Thinking about studying abroad? Not sure where to start? 🤔

You don’t need to have your destination picked out or even know when you want to go to start exploring. 💭

Starting early gives you more time to discover programs, find funding, and choose an experience that fits your interests, schedule, and degree requirements. 🌎✈️

Here are six resources every Iowa student should know about 🧠📖

Step 1: Discover Programs

Use our program search tool or visit our Major Advising Pages to find programs that are right for you. 🗺️✈️

Step 2: Meet with your academic advisor

📚 Studying or interning abroad can fit into almost any academic plan.

🎓 Talk with your academic advisor early to discuss timing, degree requirements, and programs that align with your goals. You can also review study abroad recommendations for your major through the Major Advising Pages.

Step 3: Submit the advisor assignment survey and meet with a study abroad advisor

Submit the Advisor Assignment Survey to help our office connect you with the Study Abroad advisor who works with your academic area and interests. Your assigned advisor can help you:

• 🗺️ Explore programs that fit your academic goals
• ⚖️ Compare destinations and program types
• 💵 Discuss costs, scholarships, and funding options
• 🗓️ Understand application requirements and deadlines

Within one business day of submitting the survey, you’ll receive an email with the name of your assigned Study Abroad advisor and instructions for scheduling an appointment.

Step 4: Explore scholarships and funding opportunities

🚨Last year, more than $900,000 was awarded to UI students to study, intern, or do research abroad! Explore our scholarship page to learn how you can apply for merit, need-based, and other scholarships and grants.

Additionally, meet with the Office of Student Financial Aid to understand how the scholarships and grants you already receive can be applied to studying abroad. 💫

Step 5: Apply for your passport

🛂 Schedule an appointment at the UI Passport Acceptance Facility. Even if you’re only considering studying abroad, getting a passport now can save time and stress later.
