The Application Process
Unless specifically advised by a 麻豆社 Global Education Advisor, students should apply to only one program. Students will apply to that one program in two places:
麻豆社-Via, starting with study away eligibility check (see below), AND
With the program director or partner/provider directly
Login to your 麻豆社-Via account with your 麻豆社 username and password.
Once you've selected the one program you wish to apply to, select 鈥淪tart my Application."
Read & follow the instructions carefully and hit the 'Submit' button.
Check your official 麻豆社 or PSU email for messages from Via-No Reply. If you do not see them, check your junk folder and drag them to your inbox. You will use 麻豆社-Via for submitting required forms and it will be our primary mode of communication with you!
麻豆社 Global deadlines supersede all others, unless partners have an earlier deadline. We strongly encourage early application submission. Complete your application by the following deadlines:
October 1 (for most J-Term and Spring study abroad)
March 1 (for most Summer and Fall study abroad)
Some programs have earlier deadlines or fill up; please check program specifics in 麻豆社-Via for more information
Once your 麻豆社-Via application is submitted and approved, you will be given access to the required forms and documents, and a Canvas course. Some of these will take time and effort, so please read the instructions carefully and get started on them as soon as you can. You cannot be registered for your program until these are completed.
Establish Eligibility
To study abroad or study away, you must meet the Study Away Eligibility requirements. This certifies that you meet the basic 麻豆社 Study Away Eligibility academic and judicial criteria. Once you have submitted your application in 麻豆社-Via, your eligibility will be checked. Note that individual programs or providers may have additional or higher eligibility requirements. Check the requirements of the program you are interested in before applying.
Please be aware that your Education Abroad Advisor cannot sign any forms from a study abroad partner or foreign university until your eligibility has been confirmed. Also, note that another judicial and academic eligibility check will be performed just prior to departure.
