This fall, Syracuse Abroad welcomes all Syracuse University students to explore study abroad options for 2025 and beyond during this year’s Syracuse Abroad Week.

Syracuse Abroad Week, scheduled for September 16-20, invites students, partners, faculty, and staff to join virtual events to learn more about study abroad programs. Throughout the week, Syracuse Abroad staff will host information sessions on Zoom discussing program options, financing study abroad, internship opportunities, and more. To register for information sessions, visit the schedule of Syracuse Abroad Week events.

On September 18, the event "Syracuse Abroad on the Quad" will take place. Students, campus partners, and faculty are invited to visit the Syracuse Abroad tent on the Shaw Quad from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. to learn about options for semester and summer international study. In case of rain, the event will be held in Goldstein Auditorium in the Schine Student Center.

Students are encouraged to check in and grab their event passport upon arrival. They can travel to tables throughout the tent to meet with program advisors, representatives from World Partner programs, and Global Ambassadors to learn more about study abroad opportunities. Attendees will receive stamps at designated tables; once their passport is completed, they can enter for a chance to win exclusive Syracuse Abroad merchandise.
