Application Instructions
It is our intention to make the process to study abroad as user-friendly and simple as possible. However, it is important that each student follow the process carefully and complete all necessary steps.
1. Explore your options
- Research your study abroad options online

- To search by major/term/provider: click on "Advanced Search," enter the search parameters.
2. Meet with the Study Abroad Coordinator
- You may already know where you want to study abroad. You may need help selecting a program. In any case, stop by our office, located in SB 114.
3. Create an Account

4.
Follow the application instructions for your specific program (in addition to the Salem State application)- Most of you will have to complete an application for the program provider/university in addition to the Salem State study abroad application. Please note that applying through this website does not complete your study abroad application! Each student is responsible for applying to their individual program!
***Please make sure that you have a valid passport with an expiration date that is 6 months past the date that your program ends. It can take up to 4 weeks to receive your passport after applying, so please plan accordingly.
