University of Oregon Study Abroad. International Affairs. Identifying scholarships for studying abroad can take time and effort, but most scholarship recipients will tell you it is worth the time.

International Affairs

Scholarships are available through multiple sources, including the Office of International Affairs, other campus departments, program providers, and the U.S. Government. Research as many as possible to determine your eligibility. Some, but not all, scholarships require demonstrated financial need. This is typically demonstrated through completing a FAFSA (Free Application for Federal Student Aid). NOTE: Many scholarship deadlines occur before program deadlines.

Course Requirements/GPA Required

However, there are a number of important considerations as you explore the available programs, and taking these into account may help you focus your attention on just a few programs, making your decision much easier. Courses in your major or minor Some UO programs are designed for UO students with particular majors or minors, and there may be one that fits your area of study.

On the other hand, many programs offer courses of interest to students in several different fields. To simplify the issue, you might opt to search for program offerings by major or field of study, using Advanced Search. International Affairs. Can I Study Abroad in English?

International Affairs

Yes! Many courses on UO-sponsored study abroad programs are taught in English and do not require prior study of another language. Even in some countries in which English is not an official language, the host universities or the programs offered by the UO allow for studying in English. In some programs, you will study the language of the country once you are on the site, though the focus is usually on learning about both the host country’s language and culture. International Affairs. Travel/Campus. Self-Arranged Travel In most cases, students in UO-sponsored study and internship programs will arrange travel for themselves.

Travel/Campus

This means that you are free (within the limitations of your visa and legal status in the host country and other nearby locations) to travel before and/or after the program period. You are also free to use your own or family members' airline miles, or to select the best-cost option for booking your travels. You might consider student-focused services (e.g., STA Travel, StudentUniverse.com), though student-class tickets are more difficult/expensive (or even impossible) to change or get refunded in case of a missed flight.

In any case, it is best to wait to arrange your travel after you have heard that you are accepted to the program, including by the host university or program site. Passport All international travel requires a valid passport, and it must be valid for 180 days after your date of intended return travel back to the US. Entry Visas. Costs.
