Office of International Affairs STUDY ABROAD PROGRAM APPLICATION FORM Delaware State University does not require you to have the highest grades to be eligible for study abroad and most programs do not have language requirements. Your individualism is as important as your academic record. Study abroad programs look for students who are independent, self-assured, enjoy new experiences and different types of people, and can handle challenges. When you study in a foreign country, you'll be faced with new circumstances, environments, and predicaments. You can begin learning about your study abroad program by looking at www.travel.state.gov , consulate websites, country newspapers online, and travel books, such as Lonely Planet. PLEASE COMPLETE THIS FORM NEATLY IN BLUE INK OR TYPESCRIPT. PLEASE READ EACH DOCUMENT CAREFULLY AND RETURN THE COMPLETED APPLICATION AND THE SUPPORTING MATERIALS TO MRS. CANDACE ALPHONSO-MOORE, GROSSLEY HALL. If I am not in the office at the time when you drop off your application, please leave it with the student assistants (room 115) or slide it under the door of room 115A.
