International Students

Overview

As an international student studying in the United States we encourage you to take advantage of the study abroad opportunities that UM offers. You will be well-prepared for this experience as you will have already gone through a cultural adjustment process when coming to the U.S. However, you should understand the visa requirements – both for maintaining your U.S. student visa and applying for a student visa in your host country. We encourage you to talk to your Designated School Official early in the process.  

We encourage you to discuss these topics with your advisers on campus and previous study abroad program participants. We also invite you to explore the following resources and insightful stories.
