Updates & Reminders

Upcoming Newsletters:
We will correspond with you through e-mail periodically while you are abroad. Additionally, we will forward travel advisory messages from the U.S. State Department as necessary. These may include similar pieces of advice we gave you at orientation as well as recommendations you will receive on-site – keep a low profile, minimize your appearance as a tourist and carefully monitor your personal items (wallet, purse, backpack, electronics, etc.).

We recommend that you travel with heightened awareness at all times. Be alert when taking public transportation in case there are suspicious packages or individuals in your proximity. Should there be an incident in your city or a specific travel warning for your host country, you will receive specific details and recommendations. Visit the State Department's Students Abroad webpage for additional resources.
