Advising

Here to help you on your journey

Together, we’ll make sure that you'll stay on track with your graduation requirements while abroad. We will guide you and answer questions as you plan your study abroad experience!

MEETING WITH EDUCATION ABROAD STAFF

We offer in-person and video conference advising via Zoom. Students interested in any of Hunter's university exchange programs must schedule an advising appointment.

Before scheduling an advising appointment, please complete the following steps:

  1. Search our programs and familiarize yourself with the options you have: Hunter faculty-led and short-term programs and exchanges, CUNY programs, partner programs.
  2. Attend a Study Abroad 101 webinar, or watch the recording of a previous session below. Advising appointments should not be scheduled until you have attended or watched the video!
Academic Advisor

In order to receive credit for the courses you take abroad, it is crucial that you discuss your study abroad plans with your academic advisor. We recommend doing this early in your Hunter College career, so that you can plan ahead and understand when would be the best time to study abroad and how to ensure that your planned courses abroad will fit within your academic plan.
