Note: For MSW and BASW students, because our programs are cohorted and courses are only offered once/year, the best time to do study abroad and stay on track for graduation is summer.
Below is the spring quarter schedule for UW Study Abroad workshops. If you are working with students planning to study abroad or those just thinking about it, please encourage them to attend. It’s never too early to connect with resources, especially those that can help students save money. Also, if any of you advisers are interested, you are also welcome to attend any of these workshops. Many thanks again for your continued support.
Financial Planning Workshops
The Financial Planning Workshop provides students with important information about financial aid, scholarships, loans, and how the timing of a program can impact costs. Students will also receive tips on booking airfare, budgeting, and money-saving strategies.
Gilman Scholarship Info Sessions

Students must be receiving a federal Pell grant as part of their financial aid package to be eligible and be studying in a host country for a minimum of 21 consecutive days.
