Advising

Study Abroad Advising is only part of the information you will need to investigate before you make your decision. Your Academic and Major Advisors should always be consulted in order to be as prepared as possible.

There are three ways to get study abroad information. First, start with a General Information Session to get an idea of all the options available to you. Then, you can either make an advising appointment by calling our main line at: 540.568.6419 or come to the office during walk in hours. The schedules are listed below.

Study Abroad Information Sessions

Information Sessions are designed to provide students with general information about study abroad. This half hour will cover the "big picture". Students will gain an understanding of their program options. Afterwards, there will be an opportunity for students to discuss more specific questions about JMU Programs & External/Exchange Programs.

Attendance at an Information Session is required for general information and is an important first step in studying abroad. Space is limited, so call 540-568-6419 to reserve your seat. Please arrive early.
