Studying abroad, whether it’s your first time or your tenth, can be exciting—but navigating a new environment also brings unique considerations for students with physical disabilities or who are neurodivergent.
New places can present challenges related to accessibility, sensory environments, routines, or mobility, and you won’t have to manage any of it alone when studying through IES Abroad. We provide resources focused on accessibility, disability support, and neurodivergent-friendly strategies, and our dedicated Student Affairs staff are available both in the U.S. and onsite to help you prepare and advocate for what you need.
Explore our collection of IES Abroad and partner resources designed to support a healthy, accessible, and empowering study abroad experience.
