Partnership and Exchange program participants are invited to attend an in-person session to meet with other ASU students studying abroad in the same location, program alumni, and/or international students from their host country.

3.    ASU students preparing for a Global Education program also receive a comprehensive Global Education program Handbook, including information on passports and visas, safety and security, academic success abroad and other topics.
