During your Study Abroad year

Once you know you'll be studying abroad, you'll need to arrange accommodation, insurance, visas, proof of your finances and maybe some foreign language studies.

Being accepted for Study Abroad is an exciting time but make sure you have done all the necessary preparation and planning before you go.

Study abroad competition

The Global Opportunities photo, video and blog competition is open to all Leeds students who have completed a global opportunity during the 2021/22 academic year. This could include a study abroad placement for a semester or full year, completing a summer school programme, and also international work placements. Submissions from both online and in person experiences welcome!

Emergency situations

If you have an emergency overseas please get in touch with the University of Leeds as soon as possible.

Wellbeing abroad

We want you to stay safe and have a rewarding experience, wherever you are going in the world! Living abroad means adapting to a new environment, new lifestyle, new culture, as with any form of travel these things can affect your health and safety.

Study Abroad academic requirements and support

Each parent school has a dedicated academic who will be able to advise you on different aspects of your year abroad.
