Partner University Updates
If you are a Spring 2020 IES Abroad student either directly enrolled in or taking one or more courses at one of our international partner universities, please review the updates below regarding online course offerings by clicking on the country name dropdown. Note that each school's policies vary. We will continue to update this page as we receive more information from our partners.
If your partner university offers courses online, you may request to study remotely and earn credit for your program by logging into your MyIESabroad account and completing the Online Learning Request Form. IES Abroad will contact your home college/university and follow up with you once we know if they will authorize online course credit.
