Health and Safety
The best way to achieve a healthy and safe study abroad experience is to inform yourself about basic health and safety issues before leaving the U.S. and make informed and responsible decisions once abroad.
You should:
- Carefully read all pre-departure materials.
- Register your trip with the US Department of State.
- Review State Department health and safety information for your specific country.
- Become familiar with on-site emergency contacts and plans.
- Stay abreast of local developments.
