Attend a Group Advising session
Ready to take the next step? Our Group Advising session is mandatory for all students.* The group meeting tells you everything you need to know about the study abroad/away process including how to search for programs, how to apply, financial aid and scholarships, and course, grade, and credit transfers. The meeting lasts approximately 45 minutes.
Sessions are held during the fall and spring semesters. Attend in-person Monday through Friday at 2 PM in the Study Abroad & Away Office (Psychology Room 408). or virtually on Mondays and Thursdays at 11 AM via Zoom.
Can’t make it to a session?
Students unable to attend a regularly scheduled group advising meeting may send an email to peeradvisor AT_TOWSON to request a make-up session.
Meet with a Study Abroad/Away Advisor
After attending the Group Advising session, you are required to schedule a one-on-one meeting with a Study Abroad/Away Advisor to begin planning your experience.* Together you can compare program options and discuss your goals to find a program that suits your specific needs. Don't forget to have your advising packet from the group advising session accessible during your appointment.
*Students applying to participate in a TU faculty-led program are not required to attend a group advising session or meet with a Study Abroad/Away Advisor.
NOTE: Sessions and advising appointments are only for TU students or students considering earning a full degree at TU. Non-TU students should contact the Study Abroad & Away Office at their home institution.
