Winter 2022 Drop-In Advising
Drop-in advising is intended to assist students with urgent questions on a first-come first-served basis.
The School of Kinesiology will consider study abroad programs for Fall 2022 in accordance with the U-M International Travel Policy. As a reminder you can see all current travel restrictions and warnings on the Global Michigan Travel Designations page.
How does U-M determine if study abroad programs will proceed?
Programs may open study abroad applications in hopes that the COVID-19 pandemic will improve. Please note that each U-M school/college considers a number of factors when deciding whether or not a study abroad program will proceed:
The School of Kinesiology highly values the international learning experience. The Office of Global Engagement assists Kinesiology students in finding opportunities for international study, research, volunteerism, and internships. Global Engagement also supports our students as they pursue funding, academic, and professional resources, and helps them determine the program that best fits their educational and personal goals.
Education abroad opportunities for Kinesiology students include:
All students must meet with an OUSA advisor to align their education abroad opportunity with their academic plan.

Credits earned from non-Kinesiology U-M education abroad programs often apply towards prerequisite, elective or core courses. Few required core courses in Kinesiology can be fulfilled by participating in programs outside of the School of Kinesiology, although some exceptions have been made.
Education abroad opportunities are also offered through program providers. Students can only use federal financial aid on programs not sponsored by University of Michigan units.
After researching several options and deciding on a few opportunities that interest you, schedule an appointment with Global Engagement.
