PLANNING YOUR PROGRAM

Please keep in mind that directing a study abroad program does require lots of time and work. The deadline to have programs approved is usually mid-September, and directors should start planning their programs well before the deadline.

If you are a faculty member thinking about starting a new study abroad program, please contact Farrah Bernardino , Director of Study Abroad Programs (farrahb@gsu.edu) to set up a meeting. Study Abroad Programs must be notified of all programs in which students will travel abroad using the University name and/or resources. This includes programs of short duration that are administered by Schools and/or Departments.
