Explore Opportunities at Study Abroad Fair on September 26

The Office of International Programs is hosting its biggest study abroad event of the year! The Study Abroad Fair will take place on Tuesday, September 26 from 5-7 p.m. in the BDH Courtyard.

This is an opportunity for students to connect with Meredith faculty who are leading study abroad programs during spring, summer, and fall 2024. This event is also an opportunity for students to connect with our affiliate programs!

At the fair, students can learn about scholarship opportunities and financial aid for study abroad. Meredith has outstanding study abroad scholarships and generous financial aid policies to help make study abroad affordable. Scholarships are both merit-based and need-based. The fall Semester in Italy program has multiple scholarship awards of $5,000!
