Hello UMBC! 

It's the first day of the semester and we are so glad you are here, but while everyone else on campus is welcoming you, our Education Abroad team is telling you to GO AWAY! Please join us at the GO Fair on Tuesday, September 3 from 11 am-2 pm on Main Street in the Commons.

The GO Fair is the perfect opportunity to learn about all the study abroad programs UMBC offers as well as other global opportunities. Our staff and program directors will be available to answer any questions you have and help you take the first steps in the application process. ALL students of any major are welcome to attend! 

Deadlines are fast approaching for the following winter and spring break programs:

Learn about all of these as well as many other programs at the fair.

If you think studying abroad isn't in your budget, consider applying for scholarships.

Do you have a major in the College of Arts, Humanities, and Social Sciences? The CAHSS Dean's Scholarships for Education Abroad offers awards up to $5,000. Applications are due September 10.

Do you receive a Pell Grant? You may be eligible to apply for the Gilman Scholarship. Awards are available up to $8,000.

Let us help you make study abroad part of your UMBC experience!
