Upcoming Website Maintenance

Early this Monday morning U.S. Central Time the IES Abroad website will undergo scheduled maintenance. During this time some or all features of the site - like login and account creation - will be unavailable, but we expect this disruption to be brief. Thank you for your patience.

University Experience [redefined]®

Study abroad takes many forms. Want to dip your toes in the study abroad experience? Go abroad for a summer. Want complete immersion? Spend the whole year abroad while interning part-time. Want to take classes at a local university? Our direct enrollment programs offer an education at world-class universities, customizable courseloads, and cultural immersion that combine the best parts of study abroad. 

In a direct enrollment program, you are enrolled as a full-time student at one of our over 70 international partner institutions. We work with our partners abroad to curate a robust list of course and discipline options to suit the needs of every type of student. When you enroll at a university abroad, you take classes like a local.
