College Freshmen!

It's a great idea to plan for study abroad early in your college career. Knowing that you want to spend a semester abroad in your junior year, for example, you can plan your course schedule in your first two years to accommodate that. You can take courses in your major overseas, and you can also save some GenEds and electives, add a minor (perhaps an Individualized Minor that you design yourself), and consider any required sequencing of courses for your major. Tell your academic advisor you want to study abroad.

Also, don't let the cost get you down. There are affordable options to study abroad and scholarships are available. IU Education Abroad and the College International Office can help you navigate your options.
