Student Privacy

Education Abroad at Texas A&M University must abide by the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA). This means that we cannot divulge student academic, financial or enrollment information to parents unless explicit permission has been provided by the student.

Why go abroad?

Here at Texas A&M, we tell students that they should go abroad to Explore, Experience, Extend, and Excel. Data shows that students who study, intern, research, or volunteer abroad come back with knowledge, skills, and connections that propel them faster and further towards their future goals.

Funding Education Abroad

The presumed cost is the No. 1 deterring factor among students and their families when deciding whether or not to pursue an abroad opportunity. However, one of our top priorities is to make these experiences as accessible as possible.

Health and safety

Student health and safety is the No. 1 priority for all of our programs. We work continuously to ensure we assess the various factors of risks that may be involved with international travel. The student, however, must also take responsibility for their own safety and wellbeing.
