Resources for Adult Learners and Veterans
Veterans
Veterans interested in education abroad opportunities should contact Oldham Family Veteran Student Center located in Meyer Library #108.
Adult Learners
Married students and students with families are encouraged to consider a education abroad opportunity as well. Whether you are interested in a short term faculty led program or semester long education abroad program with your family, there are many resources available to help you. We highly encourage you to begin your planning early, as there may be additional steps and fees required to complete the process. Some of the additional requirements and expenses may include passports for family members, childcare obligations, housing restrictions, employment leave, and liability concerns.
You are encouraged to meet with our Education Abroad Advisor to identify a program whose length, housing, academics, location, etc. best fits you and your interests.
