Study Abroad Eligibility and Application

Students must be rising sophomores, juniors, or seniors, and be in good academic, disciplinary, & financial standing in order to participate in any type of study abroad program. Note that students on academic probation, on a required leave, or students who are under disciplinary censure are not allowed to study abroad. If the OIDP has granted the student approval to go abroad and the student falls into one of the above categories, study abroad status will be revoked.
