Academic Planning for Study Abroad (2-4pm, Library, SSC Academic Advising)
Get a head start on your study abroad application! SSC Academic Advisors will be available during this resource session to provide support to non-PCSB majors with completing the four-year plan you will be required to submit to the CGE for your study abroad application and approval.
It is required that you start working on your four-year plan independently and then bring your rough draft with you to this session. The purpose of this session is for SSC Academic Advisors to give you feedback and direction with your plan and to answer your questions.
Please be sure to bring your laptop to this session! The four-year plan of study can be found on the CGE website Document Center page. There is a fillable version that you can complete electronically. The CGE will also accept handwritten and scanned copies of the form if you prefer to print it out to work on it in that way. If you decide on completing the form physically rather than electronically, please just make sure to print out your own copy of the four-year plan of study prior to meeting with the SSC advisors.
Please note this event is geared toward non-PCSB majors. PCSB majors are strongly encouraged to attend the PCSB specific programming being run throughout the semester.
