Students can contact Dr. Alison Green, Director of International Affairs at the College of Business, agreen2@uwf.edu.
After the student has reviewed the eligibility requirements and available programs, the student makes an appointment to review study abroad program options with a study abroad advisor. Students can make an appointment by calling 850-474-2479 or through the SSC Campus App in MyUWF.
To apply for a study abroad exchange, students submit the International Exchange Study Abroad Application. This form is reviewed by the College of Business to ensure that the selected study abroad program is a good academic fit for the degree plan.
Schedule a Study Abroad Advising Appointment
A study abroad advisor will contact the student to schedule a follow up appointment once the application has been approved. The study abroad advisor will review the process to apply to the chosen partner institution and discuss available options.
Once courses have been approved by Dr. Green, International Affairs creates a learning agreement for the student's study abroad program. The learning agreement outlines the courses which have been approved for the study abroad semester. The student and academic advisor receive an email to confirm the approved course selection.
Once students arrive at the host institution and enroll in the pre-approved courses, students submit the Enrollment Certification Form. The form is completed by the student and the host institution. A copy of the form must be submitted to UWF International Affairs and the Office of the Registrar at UWF.
The exchange partner institution will provide a final transcript of courses completed on the study abroad exchange.
