We're upgrading your Student Portal! Log in and new applications are unavailable now through end of day July 6 (CT)— that's when you'll return to an easier, improved system.

Already working on a form? Anything you submitted before June 30 carried over automatically. Forms that were started but not submitted don't transfer, but don't worry, you'll find the same forms waiting for you in the new portal on July 6. For more details, please review our student system upgrade information. Want a heads-up when the new portal is live? Fill out our interest form.

Thank you for your patience during this transition! We're excited to welcome you into the new portal and continue supporting you every step of the way.

The safety of your students is our highest priority.

Student health, safety, and crisis management is a cornerstone of what we do. Our Dean of Students' office, Crisis Management Team, and on-site staff are working day-in and day-out to ensure the health and safety of our students around the world. 

As your trusted study abroad provider, we promise prompt and concise communication whether your student falls ill or there's an incident in the city where they are studying. Keeping students, parents, and university staff members like you informed of any health or crisis-related incidents that may effect IES Abroad programs is of paramount importance.

We strive to make the most well-informed decisions we can. Our Crisis Management Team members and Center Directors receive regular updates from a variety of governmental and non-governmental sources that monitor any significant safety, security, health, and travel-related developments worldwide, especially in those locations where we have students.

Beyond our student support services, resources, and protocols, we actively maintain open lines of communication with you so that you can have peace of mind about your students' well-being.

How We Support Students

Although it is impossible to anticipate everything, IES Abroad has extensive protocols in place for a wide variety of potential emergencies or crisis. We have a dedicated, well-trained and experienced Crisis Management Team. 

Every IES Abroad destination also has one or more designated staff members whose duties include providing student services on-site. They are supported by our Student Life, Health, and Safety department.
