Common Questions and Answers

Before reaching out to the UKEA office, be sure to review the common questions and answers below. 

I don't know where to start

Our First Steps Information Sessions are a great place to start if you have questions about Education Abroad!

In these sessions, we'll discuss everything you need to know to get started on your EA journey. E.g. how to select a program, earning credit abroad, cost, financial aid, scholarship information, and more! UK EA encourages all students starting this process to attend one of these sessions, and you must attend a First Steps session before meeting with your EA Advisor.

I want to find study abroad programs for my major/minor

Here's how to find programs that meet your major/minor or degree plan:

1. EA Major Advising Pages (MAPs) - Recommended

UK Education Abroad & Exchanges Has partnered with academic departments to identify programs that align with your degree plan. These are not the only programs available to you, but they are a good place to get started.

To view the map page for your degree visit the UK EA main page and scroll down to the Discover Programs by College dropdown menu.

2. EA Program Discovery (Open Search)

Visit the EA Program Discovery page. You can search by keyword, or use the filter button to narrow down country, region, or by department. 

I want to information about scholarships available to me

All available information regarding scholarships is available on the Browse Scholarships page. 

Note: Unless the scholarship specifically asks you to obtain pre-approval from an EA advisor, EA Advisors are unable to answer questions about deadlines, amounts or eligibility. 

An advising appointment is not recommended. 

I need someone in EA to sign a form

Please send your form to the UK Education Abroad & Exchanges general inbox. Use the following subject line: Signature Request - [Form Name or Partner Name] - [Your Name]

Messages received without the above subject line may be further delayed. 

Email address: educationabroad@uky.edu

Allow at least 3-5 business days for UKEA to process your request.
