Safety on Study Abroad

Binghamton University considers the safety of its students to be a top priority. We require that participants in all Binghamton University administered programs attend a pre-departure orientation, during which health, safety, legal and cultural issues and differences, as well as program specifics will be discussed.

The following links provide useful tips to help ensure that the study abroad experience is a safe one. We encourage all participants and their parents to review this information carefully.
