IMPORTANT PASSPORT INFORMATION

ALL STUDENTS MUST HAVE A VALID PASSPORT TO TRAVEL ABROAD.

If you need a passport or need to renew your passport, we STRONGLY SUGGEST that you begin that process ASAP. We recommend that you have a valid passport in hand by the time you apply for your study away program. Passports must be valid for 6 months after your RETURN date. For example, if you are planning to study away in the fall 2024 semester, your passport must be valid through June 2025.

US CITIZENS: Passport application processing time is roughly 2 – 3 months. Visit the US Department of State website to begin the process now.

INTERNATIONAL STUDENTS: If you need to renew your passport, we strongly encourage you to review your home countries’ renewal process/timelines and plan accordingly. Also, depending on your home country and immigration status in the US, you may need to renew your US Visa before you can study abroad.
