Safety and Responsibility Guidelines
In order to have the safest and most productive experience possible, students and their parents should be familiar with the roles they and staff play in making programs both rewarding and safe.
Policy on Study Abroad in Countries under Travel Warnings
The safety and security of IU students abroad is of the utmost importance to us. Therefore, when judging the safety of a program location we give primary consideration to Travel Warnings issued by the U.S. Department of State. The basic premise from which we operate is that Indiana University will not offer or support study abroad in countries that are under a State Department Travel Warning.
Overseas Study Advisory Council and New Program Proposals
Overseas Study Advisory Council, a committee comprised of IU faculty and staff with interest and/or expertise in international affairs, helps guide the policy and programming decisions of the Office of Overseas Study.
Policies and Procedures for Organizations that Provide Study Abroad Programs
Information and advice for representatives of organizations and institutions that provide programs abroad of potential interest to Indiana University students.
