About the Center
At 55 Whitney Avenue, we offer a wide variety of resources for students seeking international experience. We provide information, advice, and guidance to potential travelers, as well as contact information for returned students. At the Center, you can:
- Meet with a program adviser. Staff advisers can help you formulate goals, answer questions, and guide you through the process. Most offices offer both appointment and walk-in hours.
- Attend information sessions. Check out each department’s online calendar or sign up for their list-serv to be notified of upcoming events.
- Contact peer advisers. Networks of peer advisers are willing to serve as resources for other students. Get advice from students who have already participated in an international experience.
- Read program evaluations. Find out what other Yalies had to say about their experiences abroad.
- Stop by one of Yale’s international opportunities events. These include such events as the Academic Fair for Freshmen, the annual International Opportunities Fair, and the Summer Options Mini-Fair. Information meetings about specific programs are held throughout the academic year. You can sign up for departmental email lists and so be informed of upcoming meetings and program deadlines. Residential College Deans often include information about international opportunities, events, and deadlines in their weekly emails, and useful sessions and meetings are organized in the Colleges and on Old Campus.
