We are excited that you are interested in applying to study abroad through MSU and we are here to help you Go Somewhere! Follow the steps below to get started with the study abroad process. If you have any questions please email studyabroad@montana.edu or call 406-994-7151
1. Attend an Info Session
Attending an info session is the first step required for all students interested in studying abroad. We will cover FAQ’s including program options, deadlines, financial aid, scholarships, costs and other pertinent information. Info Sessions are held every Wednesday from 4pm - 4:30pm in 400 Culbertson Hall. No RSVP required. At the info session, we will explain our new online application process to help get you started.
Can’t make an info session? Please contact studyabroad@montana.edu to arrange an alternate time.
2. Request an Advising Appointment
A 1-on-1 advising appointment is required before you can apply to a program. After attending an info session, create your online profile and click on “Start an Advising Application”. Fill out the advising questionnaire and then request an advising appointment. We offer program advising to all students. Find the program that is right for you based on location, semester, courses, or whatever!
