大家好，欢迎来到《韦德体育官方网站》. We are the 国际教育 Office and we are going to explain how to start your adventure for Study abroad!

你好, my name is Brenda Murueta and I am a study abroad student adviser at the Office of 国际教育 at 韦德体育app官网. I am an international grad student currently pursuing my Master of Science in 业务 Analytics degree. I am from Mexico, and my experience studying abroad has been amazing here at Oakland.

Hi, my name is Juan Martin Davila and I am an International graduate student from Quito Ecuador. 现在, I am currently studying for my Master’s in Science Information Technology Management of 工商管理. 当我不读书的时候, I work as a study abroad student adviser at the office of 国际教育. I’ve had the incredible opportunity to study abroad in Cartagena, 哥伦比亚, and now I am really enjoying my study abroad experience here at 韦德体育app官网.

韦德体育app官网 offers many study abroad programs that allow you to get OU credit and grades that count for graduation. Throughout this presentation we will discuss where you can go abroad and how to start planning.

那么谁能出国留学呢? Typically, any OU student with a minimum 2.5 GPA, although this varies depending on the program.  Some programs might also have a foreign language requirement, but most do not.

You do not need to speak another language to study abroad. Most of our programs are taught entirely in English, 这样你就可以在中国学习了, 摩洛哥或法国, 例如, 不会说中文, 阿拉伯语或法语. We also have a lot of programs in English speaking countries, 比如英国, 新西兰, 澳大利亚和苏格兰.

We offer more than 300 programs in 45 different countries. 出国留学 program can be during the Summer a semester or a whole academic year. We also offer study away programs through 全国交换生,  where you can study away at one of the 170 campuses in the United States or Canada.

Our most popular options are known as faculty-led programs. 这些都是由公开大学的教授领导的, 你会活下去, travelling and studying abroad with other OU students while abroad. These programs typically take place over the summer or during semester breaks, and may last from 10 days to six weeks.

We also offer partner programs and exchange programs. We have partnerships with a number of organizations that offer programs all over the world, where you’ll be studying abroad with other students from universities throughout the U.S. 这里你可以看到一些例子.

Our exchange programs allow you to study directly at a foreign university. These appeal most to independent students, as you will be a regular international student at the university you choose.

Now I will explain how you can Start with the application process. First you can go to our website getrealcuba.com/ie. Click  the 留学冒险表 button. If the website asks for an email address to log in remember to use your OU credentials.  Once the Adventure Form has opened you can start filling it out. 输入您的OU电子邮件地址和名称. After that you will be asked about the first program that you are interested in, 比如这个词, 的语言, 研究对象, 成本和先决条件. You will find all this information in the 搜索程序 link located in the description of the form. When you click here, you will find all the programs that we offer. I recommend you to use the filter sections to narrow your option. 例如, I will use the destination filter and I will select “Ireland” because I always wanted to travel to this country. Select Ireland and then the “Apply Search” button.  还记得 you can use other filters such as provider, 机构研究领域, 教学语言, 条款, 缩小你的选择范围.

Click on any program and you will see some more information about that option. Then, scroll down and click the link that says “Program Home页面.“在程序主页上, 你会看到报价的条款, 的日期, 成本, application deadlines and the requirements. You can also find information about what courses are offered on that program. After you gather all the information you need,  go back to your 留学冒险表 and finish it. The Adventure Form also asks you to select a second program, and you can follow the same steps to complete this part. 一旦完成, you will receive an email with a link where you can schedule an appointment with a Student Adviser to discuss your program selections or any questions that you have.  Or, if you prefer to start  your application right away, you also can do that by clicking the “韦德体育官方网站” button .

这是正确的. And now I’m going to explain how to create an account and start an application. In this 页面 you will need to click the blue ‘Current Oakland Student Please Login HERE’ button’  and enter your OU email address and password and sign in. Start  filling out the rest of your account information and after that you are free to browse study abroad programs, 然后启动应用程序. 使用“搜索程序”选项卡, find the program you want to apply for, 单击程序名称, scroll down and click the “Apply” button next to the term you want to study abroad.

Now, let’s talk about 为你的经历付费. 一般, you can use any scholarships and financial aid you have here at Oakland while you’re studying abroad. We also offer scholarships specifically for study abroad. The application for these scholarships is built into your program application. There are other sources of money as well, 穿过校园, 来自我们的合作伙伴项目, and through national scholarships sponsored by the government or private organizations. You can find more information about these on the 国际教育 website.

我们项目的费用各不相同, but it may not be as much as you expect – on some programs you can even study abroad for less than you pay to study here. You can use your normal financial aid package, and every year our students earn well over $100,000 in scholarships just for study abroad. 学生贷款也可以. Don’t let worries about the cost dissuade you from studying abroad. All OU tuition scholarships apply, as well as grants and loans. 我们提供出国留学奖学金, available on the IE website and there are also departmental scholarships available as well as scholarships from our providers such as JCMU, CIEE, USAC和GEO.
