There are a variety of ways in which you can familiarize yourself with study abroad opportunities at Ohio State. To learn the basics about study abroad, you should first attend a Getting Started session. If you still have questions about how to select the program that’s right for you, visit Oxley Hall during Program Exploration walk-in hours. Or, if you have specific questions about a program, schedule an appointment with the appropriate study abroad coordinator during office hours.

Getting Started sessions

All students interested in study abroad must attend a Getting Started session. At these sessions, you will learn more about studying abroad including how to select a program that is the best fit for you, along with other practical information about finances, the application process, and other resources available to you. Getting Started sessions may last up to one hour, please arrive promptly at the start time for the session.
