Colorado State University’s much-anticipated Education Abroad Fair will be held on Wednesday, Sept. 13, from 10 a.m. to 2:30 p.m. in the Lory Student Center Grand Ballroom.
The fair is the first step and one stop-shop for CSU students interested in educational opportunities abroad.
With more than 200 programs represented, attendees will have the opportunity to discover destinations spanning the globe that can contribute to both academic and personal development.
CSU staff, faculty, returned students and program providers will all be on hand to meet with students and answer questions about international opportunities for study, research, internships and service-learning. By connecting with those who have experienced education abroad firsthand, students can gather insights, stories and tips for making the most of their adventures abroad.
In addition to program specific information, students can learn about financial aid options, health preparations before going abroad and how to benefit professionally from an international experience.
The Office of Financial Aid, CSU Health Network, Peace Corps, Semester at Sea and CSU Todos Santos will all be present at the fair.
