The Beginning: Lehigh's Study Abroad Process

Freshmen and sophomores at Lehigh, this post is for you! Below is a list of steps to take to start planning your study abroad trip. Some of you may be thinking it’s too early to start thinking about this. It’s not!
1.       Attend a Get Started Session. These sessions at held every day at 4 p.m. in Lamberton Hall. This session is required for all students before scheduling a private appointment. In these information sessions, study abroad counselors give basic information about how to apply, eligibility and financial aid. They gave out information on the programs offered at Lehigh to help students better understand their options.
2.       Once you have solidified your desire and eligibility to travel abroad, meet with your major or general advisor to ensure that study abroad fits into your planned coursework for your remaining semesters at Lehigh.
3.       After you attend a session and have spent sufficient time soul searching, you can schedule an appointment with an advisor. This is for you to discuss your individual plans and goals. The specific application process and details of the trip are explored in this meeting.
The deadline to apply for Summer 2011 and Fall 2011 is Wednesday, March 2. Directions to reach the online application are provided by the Lehigh University Study Abroad Office website.
