Spring 2020 Office Services

In light of Penn’s move to online coursework for the remainder of the Spring 2020 semester, Penn Abroad is offering a number of ways to connect, have an advising session, and learn more about global opportunities. While the Penn Abroad office is not currently offering in-person meetings, we remain operational during regular business hours, Monday through Friday, 9:00 am-5:00 pm ET.

Here are some ways to connect with us this spring semester:

• Semester Abroad, Penn Global Seminars, and Global Research & Internship Program advising has been moved to virtual sessions. Please refer to each program on our Meet with an Advisor page to make an appointment.
• While drop-in advising hours are suspended for the semester, students who have not yet selected a program or region of interest may sign up for a virtual advising appointment. Please visit the Spring 2020 Drop-In Hours page for sign up information.
• General contact information for the office and by program can also be found on our Contact Us page.

Penn Abroad remains committed to providing every Penn student with a meaningful global experience. We believe that global experiences can have a significant impact on each person’s academic, professional, and personal development. While this semester has offered unprecedented challenges, we look forward to working with you as you define your goals and take advantage of essential global learning opportunities in the future.
