Meet with a Study Abroad Adviser

We're Here for You

Advisers can help you identify goals for your study abroad experience and guide you through thoughtful program selection. Advisers also can clarify the application process, credit transfer, and financial resources, as well as provide pertinent pre-departure information. Advisers remain available to you before, during, and after your study abroad experience.

Note: Thinking about studying abroad this summer?

Watch our Planning for a 2025 Summer Study Abroad webinar. In this webinar, advisers provide an overview of your summer study abroad options and discuss the application processes and timelines, credit transfer, and funding opportunities such as the International Study Award. They also share planning tips and helpful resources.

General Advising

While each adviser specializes in specific locations, it is okay to schedule a meeting with any adviser if you have not yet identified where you would like to go. We welcome you to schedule a study abroad overview appointment for general advising.

Schedule an Advising Meeting

Appointments are scheduled for 30 minutes. Yale Study Abroad staff are working in a hybrid schedule with some days in the office and some days remote. For this reason, most advising appointments are conducted via Zoom.

Before meeting with an adviser, we encourage you to review the Get Started section of our website.
