Academic Advising Form

UNLV Study Abroad, International Exchange and National Student Exchange programs are academic programs. It is important that you have thorough academic advising prior to your departure for your chosen program. In many cases, it will not be possible to determine in advance the course equivalents for course work you take while on a study abroad or exchange program. It is, therefore, imperative that you understand your current standing with respect to general education and major requirements.

UNLV International Programs strongly recommends that you complete this form with your advisor prior to departure.
