Today: Virtual Study Abroad Fair—Tell Your Students to Join

The Institute of International Education (IIE), CollegeWeekLive, and the U.S. Department of State are hosting a virtual study abroad fair for U.S. high school and university students to learn more about the benefits of study abroad, program options, potential host countries, and funding opportunities.

Students will be able to chat live with over 50 university representatives and other exhibitors from 13 different countries, including representatives from the U.S. Department of State. They will learn about study abroad programs, internships abroad, and service learning opportunities. Video presentations will discuss the value of study abroad for professional development and guide students on how to choose and finance an exchange program, prepare for the experience, and apply for scholarships. Registration is free, and students who visit at least 5 booths will be eligible to win cash prizes.
