Collaborative Advising for Communication Majors

Wednesday, November 20th, 2019

11:00 AM - 12:00 PM

Storrs Campus
ARJ 225

The session will be geared towards students who want to study abroad, but may not necessarily be sure about what programs would best suit them or their academic/personal needs.

Even if you already have an idea of the program you would like to participate in, this program is also a good opportunity to learn more about relevant coursework and how it might apply your particular plan of study.

We will also address additional concerns that students commonly have about this exciting but also sometimes intimidating process.

During this session, we will cover not just the application process and coursework, but will also work as a group to develop a better idea of what you might want to get out of the experience.
